Re-thinking the EU's neighbourhood Following the European Council’s June decision to grant Ukraine and Moldova candidate status and the European Commission’s October recommendation that Bosnia and Herzegovina be granted the same, a growing number of European countries are now on the accession track or, like Georgia and Kosovo, waiting in the wings. At the same time, the EU’s difficult relations with the likes of Switzerland, Türkiye and the United Kingdom continue, as do rule of law issues with current Member States. In the light of all this, a panel of distinguished experts on the enlargement process and such emerging concepts as staged accession and the European Political Community will examine how the EU could or should be re-thinking its neighbourhood.

Working Together to Drive Down International Transport Carbon Emissions The importance of joint climate leadership in the field of international transport by the UK, the EU and other leading players, is heightened by the current challenging global context, including the post-pandemic recovery, the war in Ukraine, the energy crisis, and the need to maintain and build momentum following the success of COP26.
The webinar aims to bring together policy makers, experts, academics, and key industry players to examine these challenges and explore how greater efforts and co-operation are required to maximise the international opportunities presented by COP27, the ICAO Assembly, the IMO Review of GHG Strategy, European Airspace utilisation, and global developments in innovation and technology.
