Academic publication is a central component of Horizon Europe projects. To this end, 19 researchers from ENSURED and the sister project NAVIGATOR met for a two-day workshop in Brussels on 18–19 November to discuss academic papers examining EU support for global governance in a contested world.
The topics of the papers varied widely, ranging from the geopolitics of world trade to carbon pricing, climate funds, biodiversity leadership, migration governance, money laundering, the global health regime complex, digital sovereignty, peace and security, and UN development programmes. All contributions, however, explored how the EU and its member states seek to act strategically in support of multilateralism.
Particularly significant dilemmas for the EU include the choice between continued broad and diffuse support for multilateralism or a more geopolitically inspired, narrower and more selective approach, while also having to decide between traditional multilateral institutions and a variety of newer institutional formats (informal, ad hoc, public–private, and others).
The purpose of the meeting was to discuss a total of 14 papers with a view to progressing towards joint publication.
The workshop was chaired by Hylke Dijkstra, John Karlsrud and Clara Weinhardt, and took place at the Maastricht University Brussels Hub. Paper presenters came from partner institutions in Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Norway, South Africa, and the Netherlands.
