State of the European Union 2018 - The European states facing the reforms of the Union
THE EVENT IS FULLY BOOKED - registration is closed
In the 7th edition of the report on the State of the EU, produced in partnership of Fundación Alternativas and the Friedrich-Ebert-Foundation, it is question of how the member states are facing reform options in different policy fields like the economic and monetary union, digitization, external action and asylum – all of this in the context of Brexit and rising nationalism.
We would like to present the main finding of this year’s edition of the report and focus with our speakers and the audience in particular on the question of how to reconcile European economic and monetary union reforms with the principles of the European pillar of social rights.
