At its plenary session on 21 January, the EESC held a debate on artificial intelligence (AI) with guest speakers from the European Commission, the Centre for Future Generations and the Centre for European Policy Studies (CEPS). The debate was linked to the presentation and adoption of its opinion INT/1105 on Apply AI Strategy – strengthening the AI continent. Read the key messages of the members of the EESC Civil Society Organisations’ Group.
The hearing contributes to our opinion on the European Commission’s 2025 Strategic Foresight Report (SFR) on Resilience 2.0 (Rapporteur: Philip VON BROCKDORFF) and provides input towards the 2026 SFR, which will focus on the future of the European Union in a changing world. With this hearing, we aimed to build common understanding around a new basis for multilateral cooperation for the EU and how foresight can contribute to increase resilience and preparedness.
