European Trade Union Committee for Education

On 1 December 2014, the G20 Presidency rotated to Turkey and Turkish civil society organisations have launched the 2015 Civil 20 (C20) policy consultation process. The C20 is a platform for civil society organisations around the world. Each year, the C20 runs a policy consultation process to engage national and international civil society organisations in developing joint civil society policy recommendations to the G20. These recommendations serve as the basis for joint advocacy and influencing work with G20 governments for the duration of the Presidency. 

The C20 is an officially-recognised G20 engagement group and has been hosted by Russian civil society (2013), Australian civil society (2014), and is now hosted by Turkish civil society.

ETUCE invites its member organisations and their affiliates to cast their vote in favour of education in the 2015 C20  online survey and to share the survey with colleagues and networks to help set the agenda for the upcoming year.  The survey is open for approximately 6 weeks, and forms the first phase of the 2015 policy consultation process.
