What do Central Europeans have to say in the Conference on Future of Europe
Description
Once a year, the European University Institute in Florence brings together high-level EU representatives and leading thinkers to reflect on the critical challenges for the Union in the upcoming years. With attention increasingly focused on the Conference of the Future of Europe, a bottom-up perspective should also be taken into account as part of the conference exercise. What can Central Europeans contribute to the future of European integration and what role does civil society play in the process? We speak to Antonia Carparelli about the Future of Europe conference, its purpose and stakeholders. She is a European Commission official, adviser on economic affairs and lecturer at the Lumsa University in Rome. We also discuss with Junior Fellow Maria Ciupka recent developments in the region, including some that curtail NGO activities in Poland.
