Join us as we delve into the recent election outcomes for the 50+ Party and explore the key topics that dominated the campaign in the Netherlands.

Our discussion also covers the far-reaching consequences of the legislative elections, particularly the victory of the PVV, and its potential impact on the upcoming European elections. Additionally, we examine the future of former Prime Minister Mark Rutte, who has recently taken on the role of Secretary General of NATO.

This episode was recorded in Rome, where the Young European Democrats were organizing their Europe @ Home event.

Amazing opportunity to present their Manifesto to young people from all over the continent who came for the occasion.

Along workshops and debate sessions, IED President Francesco Rutelli and MEP Sandro Gozi gave passionate speeches.

An opportunity for those dedicated public servants to warn the Young Democrats to the challenges of this era.

Francesco Rutelli exhorted them to "Be Brave" before the raise of defiance and hatred. While MEP Gozi underlined the acceleration of history that take older generation by surprise.

In this podcast I have asked young representatives from Italy, Germany and France the measure from the YDE Manifesto that most concerned them, as well as how do they see the role of the EU in the world before the 2024 elections :

• Francesca Pistoni from Italia Viva
• Ludwig Diegmeyer from Freie Wehler
• Nolwen Pelven from Jeunes avec Macron

Regulating the chaotic digital world is a tough job, but the EU’s got to do it. With their solid political capital and advanced legislative tools, the EU institutions are today at the forefront of the global campaign to rein in the Big Tech, the influential companies that have come to dominate the digital world. Enough to achieve European digital sovereignty?

Listen to our discussion with Daniel Innerarity, professor at the School of Transnational Governance at the European University Institute, and Sandro Gozi, MEP for Renew Europe and Secretary-General of the European Democratic Party (EDP).

Pourquoi la préservation de la biodiversité est-elle si importante pour nos vies ? Vivre dans un monde sans bourdons serait-il si critique ? L'idée de base de la biodiversité est l'interdépendance : chaque élément du système est interconnecté.

Nous devons agir maintenant pour préserver la biodiversité, car nos enfants n'auront probablement pas la même chance.

Découvrez la stratégie en faveur de la biodiversité à l'horizon 2030 de l'Union européenne et écoutez la discussion animée avec Marco Gualtieri, le fondateur de Seeds&Chips, et Florence Wijsbroek, la présidente de l'Institut de développement durable des Balkans, à l'occasion de la conférence de l'IED sur la biodiversité à Saint-Marin (octobre 2021).

Why is preserving biodiversity so relevant to our lives? Would living in a world without bumblebees be so critical? The basic idea behind biodiversity is interdependence: every element of the system is interconnected.

We must act now to preserve biodiversity, because our children probably won't have the same opportunity.

Tout au long de l'histoire, la culture, l'identité ethnique et religieuse ont été au cœur même des hostilités armées, des soulèvements et des guerres. Les différences culturelles et les identités conflictuelles semblent être les principaux facteurs de division. Mais dans de nombreuses autres circonstances, la culture s'est révélée être exactement le contraire : un moyen de combler les fossés entre des sociétés différentes.

Si la promotion de la diversité culturelle peut favoriser la compréhension mutuelle, l'Union européenne peut-elle promouvoir la culture comme un outil permettant pour prévenir les conflits ?

C'est ce que nous allons découvrir avec nos deux invités : Juan Antonio March, ancien ambassadeur auprès de la Fédération de Russie et de l'OMC, et le professeur Damien Helly, conseiller culturel international spécialisé dans l'action culturelle extérieure de l'UE.

Throughout history, culture, ethnic and religious identity have been at the very heart of armed hostilities, uprisings and wars. Cultural differences and conflicting identities seem to be primarily divisive. But in many other instances, culture has proven to be the exact opposite: a means to bridge gaps between different societies.

If the promotion of cultural diversity can foster mutual understanding, can the European Union promote culture as a tool to actually prevent conflicts?

Let’s find out with our two guest speakers: Juan Antonio March, former Ambassador to the Russian Federation and the WTO, and Prof. Damien Helly, international cultural advisor specialised in EU external cultural action.

Disinformation campaigns in Europe, whether driven by domestic or external actors, bring about harmful effects on the public debate, by disseminating distrust towards institutions and science. And with a massive vaccination campaign being currently rolled out, disinformation could be the Achilles heel of Europe. As the end of the Covid-19 pandemic is still surrounded by uncertainty and the capacity of European governments to effectively deal with the health crisis is put under strain by anti-vax movements, we must ask ourselves, what if… we immunised citizens from fake news? A conversation with Andrzej Potocki, Vice President of the Polish party Stronnictwo Demokratyczne and Peter Kréko, a social psychologist and Director of the “Political Capital Institute”, in Budapest.
