Event, online: Is Europe Really Divided?

Join our online discussion around our latest report, “Europe on Edge – Building Strategic Communication on the European Union in Poland”.

Europe is frequently portrayed as divided-between East and West, democracies and autocracies. But is this portrayal accurate, or is it a product of hostile strategic communication?

Are we truly united? Are our societies unified in their values and goals? What lessons can we learn from Poland and the Czech Republic’s efforts to communicate the EU’s strategic priorities?

Join our online discussion with Vendula Kazlauskas, Wojciech Przybylski and Katarzyna Szaran, hosted by Anna Kuczyńska. The event will take place on 11 March at 3:00 PM CET / 9:00 AM ET on Zoom. This conversation is centred around our latest report, “Europe on Edge – Building Strategic Communication on the European Union in Poland”.

Authored by Dr. Anna Kuczyńska, the report offers eight key recommendations drawn from the Res Publica Foundation’s extensive work with social leaders in four district towns across Poland. These towns were selected as case studies due to their unique political dynamics, where no single party had a clear dominance in the 2023 parliamentary elections. Read the report by clicking HERE.
