Established in 1996 as an academic prototype, the model has grown into a central pillar of European social policy analysis. Today, EUROMOD provides a harmonized and transparent framework for assessing the distributional and fiscal effects of tax‑benefit policies across EU Member States and partner countries. Its evidence has shaped national debates, informed EU‑level policymaking, and contributed to a deeper understanding of income distribution, poverty, labor market incentives, and redistribution.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; margin-left: 47.25pt; line-height: normal; background: white;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; color: #494949; mso-fareast-language: IT;\"\u003eOver the past three decades, EUROMOD has inspired a vast body of academic research and institutional analysis, producing hundreds of peer‑reviewed articles and policy reports. This anniversary volume takes stock of that achievement. It documents the historical evolution of EUROMOD, explains how the model is used in policy processes across Europe, and highlights methodological innovations and future directions in microsimulation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; margin-left: 47.25pt; line-height: normal; background: white;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; color: #494949; mso-fareast-language: IT;\"\u003eBringing together leading scholars and practitioners, the contributions offer a dual perspective: a retrospective account of how EUROMOD became a cornerstone of social policy assessment, and a forward‑looking exploration of the model’s next 30 years.

He has been involved in developing EUROMOD since 2006, focusing particularly on labour supply modelling. He sits on the EUROMOD Scientific Advisory Board at the European Commission – JRC. His research focuses on analysing the redistributive effects of public policies, the behavioural impacts of policy changes and the resilience of welfare systems to economic crises across Europe.
