Since 2019, the European Green Deal has provided a framework for addressing climate change and responding to the crises and geopolitical shifts that the EU is facing. In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the recovery plan aims to strengthen its objectives and means. Energy security, which has become a priority following Russia's aggression in Ukraine, is being addressed within the same framework. The responses to the US Inflation Reduction Act are also being integrated into the Green Deal. Nevertheless, in the run up to the 2024 European Parliamentary elections, ecology has become a prominent political rift.

Speakers:

• Florence Faucher, Professor of political science at Sciences Po, Director of the Centre for European Studies and Comparative Politics (CEE)
• Pierre Charbonnier, CNRS Research Fellow, Centre for European Studies and Comparative Politics (CEE)
  
• Céline Charveriat, IDDRI, Senior associate (TMG) and Professor PSIA (Paris School of International Affairs, Sciences Po), France
• Neil Makaroff, Directeur de Strategic Perspectives

This event is part of a new series of weekly roundtables:

GEG Weekly: Innovative Perspectives on European Affairs

The European Union is at a turning point. The war in Ukraine, climate change, and the future of the EU's enlargement raise the question of its place in the world and of its integration process. This new series of weekly talks aims to offer high-level, transnational, in-depth discussions to address these questions by bringing together high-level scholars, policy experts and highly motivated students.

These talks consist of 1-hour weekly roundtables in English uniting the best of academia, decision makers and European stakeholders in order to better integrate the work of academics and operational approaches.

They are organised by the Groupe d’Études Géopolitiques in partnership with Sciences Po’s Centre for European Studies and Comparative Politics and in collaboration with the College of Europe, European Institute at Columbia University, European Centre at the University of Cambridge, European University Institute in Florence, Université Libre de Bruxelles.
