Addressing home-grown radicalisation and an increasing number of refugees fleeing war and prosecution have been some of the key challenges fueling political divisions in Europe. As complex realities continue to emerge, it is increasingly challenging to find find a common European vision to address them. 

The event will gather representatives from academia, NGOs and media working in the fields of peace-building, democratisation and anti-radicalisation to engage the audience in a discussion on the state of play of the European Union. We will aim to rediscover the European solidarity clause ingrained in the Lisbon treaty and question whether “business as usual” is enough if EU is to maintain peace within its own borders and continue as a global actor in conflict regions around the world.
