Over 96 million people are at risk of poverty and social exclusion in the European Union, 22% of the EU's population. Analysing social inequality, from disciplines as varied as law, political science, history or economics is one of the goals of the Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence EUqualis, hosted at the Institut d'études europeénnes (IEE) of the Université libre de Bruxelles.
