With Improof, the Chamber of Employees has its think tank
Fueling public debate with data and ideas in Luxembourg: the CSL launches a collaborative platform. Opportunity to find the vision of its experts “for a fair and sustainable economy”.
Tell me dad, what is a thinking group ? In short, it is a think tank of experts who wish to disseminate their analysis on the company and their proposals to the greatest number. And if the ideas put forward can be taken up by leaders, it is because the convictions will have known convincing.
In Luxembourgthe “best example” of this type of structure is the Idea Foundation. Born from Chamber of Commercehis views often weigh in on the national political debate. In 12 yearsthose who feed the judgments have thus multiplied articles, books, conferences to play the role of influencers.
A new actor also hears” feed the public and political debate in Luxembourg “. It is aboutwaterproofed. A ” collaborative platform » born with Chamber of Employees leaning over her crib.
External collaborators and experts
Its initiators intend to defend conceptions in fields as diverse as work, taxation, Security social, sustainable development, inequality we Political budget.
Nine months before the legislative elections, this launch is of course not innocent. Nor reprehensible above all. If the political parties and the future deputies can feed their program with the ideas defended on the online site, the Chamber of Employees will be all the happier.
waterproofed already offer a series of articles. Texts signed by CSL employees (sociologist, economist, director of the Tax Administration, etc.) asexperts invited to speak.
Constructed ideas
And already the sensitivity of the platform is felt. There are, for example, motivating publications, supporting figures, a fairer taxation of capitalthe development of a inheritance tax or on wealth.
In a country where inequalities have been widening since the 1980s, waterproofed therefore intends to weigh socially, economically. But also in terms of environmental transition, indicating its “founding fathers”.
Far from punchlines, slogans and preconceptions, the platform will therefore decipher Luxembourg and clear new paths. Who knows, maybe this will fall on the ears of the next government majority?
