Policy Discussion with the Federal Minister of Labour and Social Affairs

High ranking visit to SOCIUM on the afternoon of March 8th, 2019: The Federal Minister of Labour and Social Affairs visits Bremen and Bremerhaven and will participate in a policy discussion at SOCIUM. Together with the State Minister of Science, Health and Consumer Protection of the City of Bremen, Eva Quante-Brandt and members of SOCIUM the debate will focus on recent developments in social inequality and possible welfare state remedies to this problem.

SOCIUM is one of the few German interdisciplinary social science research facilities which work both on questions of social inequality as well as social policy and welfare state politics. Hence, the debate will likely focus on the recent reform proposals of the Federal Minister concerning a basic pension scheme.
