The Future of Europe: Strategic Autonomy
The world is changing rapidly, while the EU is still struggling to find its role in a new geopolitical and geoeconomics environment. Therefore, the European Commission developed an innovative strategic plan to respond to new challenges and strengthen the EU’s role and values in different political areas. With its speakers’ series European Strategic Autonomy, the Aspen Institute Germany casts a spotlight on questions regarding strategic autonomy in different policy areas, in particular on (1) economy and trade, (2) security, (3) the green deal, and (4) digitalization and technology.
The Future of Europe: Strategic Foresight
Against the backdrop of a rapidly changing geopolitical and geoeconomic environment, the Aspen Institute Germany conducted a strategic foresight process with the goal of anticipating challenges and opportunities for the future of Europe. In the format of individual workshops, Aspen Germany brought together European experts to conceptualize, develop, and evaluate different future scenarios and to put forward policy recommendations. The results were published and distributed among policy-makers throughout Europe in order to enrich their strategic foresight in today’s policy making.
