Brussels, Belgium – A Glimpse into the EU’s Current Status and Future Trajectory

On Wednesday, May 8, 2024, discussions on the direction of the European Union (EU) will take centre stage in Brussels, during the highly regarded “EU Day: Europe’s Current and Future State of the Union” event. The event will be held at Maggiano’s Little Italy and begins at 11.30 am.

Meet the Speaker

The keynote speaker is Constanze Stelzenmüller, who serves as the director of the Center on the United States and Europe at The Brookings Institution. Famously known as an influential thought leader on German, European, and trans-Atlantic foreign and security policies, she brings a wealth of insight to the table. Stelzenmüller previously held the prestigious position of Kissinger Chair at the Library of Congress and was the inaugural Robert Bosch Senior Fellow at Brookings. Her background also boasts a leadership role at the German Marshall Fund of the United States, where she headed the Transatlantic Trends survey and the New Power, New Responsibility project.

With her in-depth expertise in trans-Atlantic relations, NATO, and EU foreign policy, she’s a reputable voice in the field. As a distinguished alumna, Stelzenmüller holds a doctorate in law from The University of Bonn, and a master’s degree in public administration from Harvard University Kennedy School of Government, bolstering her strong credibility in addressing major policy issues.

EU Day: Reflecting and Looking Forward

A time for reflection and gaining insight, the EU Day sets out to explore the current state of the EU in terms of political, economic, and social aspects, while looking to the future. Specifically, it aims to address critical questions surrounding Europe’s position on the global stage, its internal dynamics, and the expected trajectory of its policies amid the rapidly changing geopolitical landscape.

Participants can expect an engaging fireside chat that delves into the intricacies of trans-Atlantic relations, the future trajectory of the EU, and the pivotal role of the Union in advancing foreign and security policies. This intimate session offers a unique opportunity to engage with Stelzenmüller and gain insightful perspectives on the State of the Union.

Looking Beyond the Borders

Aligned with the mission of the EU Day, the event widens the scope of discussion beyond the political borders of Europe. It aims to foster dialogue on Europe’s global role, particularly in the context of changing dynamics in international diplomacy, economic development, trade, and technological advancements. In essence, it aspires to provide a nuanced narrative on Europe’s position in the global context.

A Platform for Engaging Dialogue

In the continuously evolving global landscape, events such as the EU Day not only mirror Europe’s commitment to international cooperation and policy development but also act as a platform for discussion, engagement, and learning. By fostering a robust dialogue on sensitive and consequential matters, they contribute to the ongoing discourse on global governance and power dynamics.

Thus, the EU Day: Europe’s Current and Future State of the Union promises to be an intellectual feast for those interested in European matters and international affairs. As a space for reflection, engagement, and inspiration, it strives to shed light on the vivid tapestry of European experience and expectations.
