European public goods

In a context such as the one that Europe is experiencing, characterised by multiple crises, it is appropriate to promote a reflection on European Public Goods and on fundamental political priorities capable of ensuring the sustainable growth of the EU and the well-being of its citizens. This reflection gets ever more important in view of the upcoming negotiations on the next European Multiannual Financial Framework for the period post 2027.

The  roots for European public goods lie in Article 3 of the Treaty on European Union, where it is stated that: “The Union’s aim is to promote peace, its values and the well-being of its people”. Since its inception, the EU has promoted the creation of European public goods: For example food security with the common agricultural policy, energy security with the Euratom Treaty, territorial cohesion with the European cohesion funds, economic stability with the creation of the Economic and Monetary Union, etc.

It is now the moment to think about more European Public Goods for the future that is to come. 

The event will be webstreamed (original, EN, FR). No registration is needed and participation is free of charge.
