As part of Europe Day, the municipality of Auderghem, in collaboration with the European Movement and JEF Belgium, is organising a conference on the theme ‘The European Union: a power in the making or a fragile giant?’ The war in Ukraine and the election of Donald Trump have raised questions about the strategic autonomy of the European Union. A strong and united EU is essential to guarantee economic stability, the defence of democratic values and the management of international crises. Strengthening European integration therefore appears to be a key lever for addressing global challenges, particularly security, energy transition and the balance of international relations.
This conference, open to the general public, will seek to decipher the sources of European power in the 21st century with Belgian and European speakers.
Speakers: Introduction by Philippe Adriaenssens, Deputy Mayor for European Affairs, Wouter Beke, MEP, Tanguy Struye De Swielande, Professor at UCL, and Willem van Mullem, journalist
The conference will be followed by a reception hosted by the municipality
