Excited to be representing @reusilience.bsky.social research in Brussels, at a hearing in preparation of the new EU Anti-Poverty Strategy. I'm speaking at an event titled "Social Protection and Inequality Reduction: Horizon Europe Insights for the Anti-Poverty Strategy"

The evidence on intergenerational poverty is limited in general, but certainly so from a migration perspective. Abrar Bawati (KU Leuven) investigates poverty persistence in Europe among second generation children from the Global South. #FISS2025

Toon Van Havere subsequently demonstrates that a trilemma of poverty reduction might be less of an issue than many may think. Reducing poverty while maintaining work incentives is possible. Fresh research from our @reusilience.bsky.social project! #FISS2025

'No cheap way to reduce poverty' says Toon from @reusilience.bsky.social research
