Invitation: Madrid and Barcelona Future of Europe Debates

On the 17th of October FES Madrid organises a public panel discussion. The panel, ‘Navigating Global Shifts: the EU's strategic pathway’, will focus on the EU’s approach to managing present geopolitical complexities.

The European Union (EU) is approaching a tipping point. With the 2024 "super-electoral" year coming to an end, the uncertain outcomes of the persisting war in Ukraine, the lack of a cohesive EU stance on the war in Gaza impacting how the union is perceived worldwide, and increasing geopolitical frictions between the US and China, analyzing the EU's strategy to navigate these global shifts has become more important than ever.

The third session of the 2024 Madrid & Barcelona Future of Europe Debates, "Navigating Global Shifts: the EU's Strategic Pathway" will bring together a group of experts to analyze the future of the EU and its policies in the world. The event will consist of a public panel and a closed-door roundtable discussion.

The public panel, ‘Navigating Global Shifts: the EU's strategic pathway’, on October 17th, will focus on the EU’s approach to managing present geopolitical complexities. Taking the EU's 2024–2029 Strategic Agenda as the starting point for the discussion, the experts will analyze the key challenges and opportunities for a free and democratic, strong and secure, and prosperous and competitive Europe.

The experts will discuss the state EU's internal cohesion and democracy; the union's renewed impetus for security and defense initiatives; and its geo-economic strategy, with strategic interdependence and the need to enhance engagement with Global South countries at the core of it.
