The EU is currently facing a number of crises such as migration with its consequences on national politics, human rights and freedom of movement; growing extremism and radicalisation, which sparks debates on religious diversity and security inside and outside Europe; and unemployment which fuels social exclusion in some of its Member States.

For whom it is

The target audience will include about 300 people, a good mixture of stakeholders including individual researchers and representatives from universities, research institutes, associations and societies; policy-makers, business representatives, non-governmental organizations, civil society groups, and media.

They will act as multipliers for the conference’s objectives and the conference will serve as a consolidation space for such a discourse.
