The Social Situation Monitor (SSM) is the European Commission's observatory of employment and social conditions in Europe. The SSM team welcomes your abstract for an oral presentation at a SSM seminar that will take place in Brussels, between 12 and 16 March 2018 (depending on speakers’ availability). *Focus of the seminar* The aim of the seminar will be to present and discuss the latest empirical research on multidimensional poverty in Europe. More specifically, we are looking for presentations exploring: - Poverty according to different (at least two) dimensions, such as income, wealth and debt, consumption, material deprivation. - Analyses as to how different groups compare in relation to these dimensions (e.g. by age, educational attainment, work status, Member State); - Implications of applying different methods (e.g. budget-based approaches, different criteria to establish poverty lines) We welcome presentations based on large comparative datasets including, but not limited to, EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions, the Luxembourg Wealth Study and the European Household Finance and Consumption Survey. *How to submit an abstract* For more information about the seminar and to submit an abstract, please visit: http://ec.europa.eu/social/main.jsp?langId=en&catId=1049& newsId=9033&furtherNews=yes
