STATUETTELABOR MOBILIS
The idea behind the Labor Mobilis Honorary Award is to appreciate people, who have outstanding achievements and special contributions in the field of promotion and support of mobility of labour and services in the European internal market.
Candidates to the Award are nominated by Members of the Labour Mobility Initiative. The laureate is chosen by the Jury, which includes representatives from the world of politics, science, administration and business.
The Labor Mobilis statuette has so far been awarded four times. The laureates were: Danuta Jazłowiecka, Radosław Mleczko, László Andor, prof. Jozef Pacolet and Frederic De Wispelaere.
The Statuette Awarding Ceremony took place during the official Labor Mobilis Gala. The last edition was held on 20 November at ICE Kraków Congress Centre, as a part of the V European Labour Mobility Congress.
The ceremony always includes unique artistic performance. The last highlight was the concert of Bester Quartet with Jorgos Skolias. This phenomenal group is formed by four outstanding classically trained instrumentalists. Their style transcendends classical, avantgarde, or jazz music, combining elements of contemporary chamber music with playful improvisation.
