Social Questions are at the heart of the European Union (EU), shaping policies that impact citizens’ well-being and rights. Exploring European social terminology like “Social Cohesion” and “Gender Equality” unveils the EU’s commitment to societal progress. As the EU addresses issues like migration and social inclusion, understanding social terms facilitates discussions on initiatives such as the European Pillar of Social Rights. In a region with diverse cultures and needs, accurate use of social terminology is essential for comprehending the EU’s actions and ensuring effective representation of citizens’ interests.
