The European Parliament’s office in Barcelona, the Representation of the European Commission and CIDOB (Barcelona Centre for International Affairs) organise the fourth edition of the Sofia Corradi Summer Course on the European Union. The three days will be monographic sessions with theoretical and practical perspectives. The sessions will be divided between an intervention by a keynote speaker from the European Commission or the European Parliament, followed by a dialogue with a journalist; and a roundtable with CIDOB researchers; members of the European institutions; and independent experts.
The aim of this summer course is to provide participants with a complete perspective on the debates and challenges of the European Union in the short, medium and long term, and with analytical tools so that they can analyse and understand the European reality and become active members in it. Those who attend the full course in person will receive a certificate of participation.
The course will address the domestic and international challenges the European Union is facing. The first day will take stock of the elections to the European Parliament held from June 6 to 9. The second session will debate EU foreign policy and the state of transatlantic relations in the wake of this crucial electoral year -with the focus on the US elections- and the consequences of the wars in Ukraine and Gaza. The last session will analyse the state of economy, the internal market and European competitiveness, considering the reports by Enrico Letta and Mario Draghi, and long-term challenges for the European economy.
