Europe
Bolster the debate around the future of Europe.
Ever since the Foundation was founded, we have been working to strengthen democracy in Europe. One major element in these efforts is the development of a strong network to improve collaboration around Europe-wide topics, for the sake of Europe's future and every citizen of Europe.
To realise this ambition, we work closely together in a long-term partnership with the European Policy Centre (EPC) and the Egmont Institute. On top of that, the launch of an alliance consisting of the EPC and national think tanks is due to enhance collaboration on important European topics. This alliance will be based at the European Think Tank House in Brussels.
Topics high on the agenda include the expansion policy of the European Union into the Western Balkan region, support for humanitarian projects and the media sector in Ukraine, and the Russian media in exile.
