Short description of the multi-annual EU-funded cross-border research project “Working, Yet Poor” coordinated by the University of Luxembourg

“Working Yet Poor (Work YP) “ is multidisciplinary and cross-border competitive research project funded by the European Union, awarded with 3.2 million euros for three years (2020-2023) by the EU’s Horizon 2020 programme. The project is conducted in seven Member States that present significant diversity in geographical position, law and social systems, with the aim of identifying the reasons such a situation has emerged and of drafting proposals for EU and national legislators. A further objective of this project is to prevent social dumping and help EU citizens to recover confidence in public governance. The University of Luxembourg was chosen to lead the WorkYP Project due to its outstanding reputation as an effective incubator of multidisciplinary research projects with real-world implications. The coordinator of the research is Prof. Luca Ratti, Professor in European and Comparative Labour Law, Director of the Master in European Law (first year) at the University of Luxembourg, and Jean Monnet Chair in European labour law. Dr Antonio García-Muñoz si Post-doctoral Researcher at the University of Luxembourg and a member of the interdisciplinary research team.
