Practical information
Ifri and SWP will organize a closed Franco-German workshop on European and global economic and financial governance. The first panel will be devoted to the G8-G20, both to draw conclusions on the French presidency and assess future cooperation between France and Germany on that matter. The second panel will try to identify common and divergent positions on the development of the European economic governance.
The workshop is the starting point of a Franco-German seminar series planned by Ifri and SWP, and with the kind support of ASKO Europa-Stiftung and the Representation of Saarland to the EU.
