A closed-door workshop dedicated to EU policies on democratic security and convened with representatives from diverse sectors spanning across the region and the European Union.
Participants from across the region and Europe gathered in Prague to examine the ongoing policy discussion defined in our FEVDS project and originally outlined in our report, “How European Democracies Are to Survive a New Trump Age“.
The participants utilised their diverse pool of knowledge to pinpoint specific areas for development in EU policy, focusing on sectors such as defence, disinformation, governability and foreign interference. They identified areas with insufficient support and formulated possible policy solutions to address those shortcomings. The outcomes of these exercises will be further developed in forthcoming workshops, as well as in a scenario-based report later in the year.
The FEVDS project aims to bolster the calibre of public discourse and expert-level deliberations regarding forthcoming policy trajectories within the European Union. By fostering synergistic partnerships among civil society stakeholders, it endeavours to fortify democratic resilience within the region. This initiative receives financial backing from the European Union.
