PROGRAMME IN SAN SEBASTIAN

April 26


Graduate Room. Faculty of Law of the UPV/EHU Campus Ibaeta. Donostia – San Sebastian

Conversations about the European Union

The European Union seems to be leaving behind its liberal idealistic values, which placed the 2030 Agenda and the United Nations commitments to Peace, Democracy and Human Rights as one of the pillars of its foreign policy and action, in favour of initiatives increasingly inspired by political realism and the defence of the interests of the Union and its Member States.This edition of the EUROPAGUNE, EHUGUNE and GERNIKA GOGORATUZ Days will address the recent geopolitical changes and the role of the European Union in the war in Ukraine, and in relations with the African continent.
