à la cellule "Prévention des crises et post-conflit"
Fragile States are unlikely to reach the Millennium goals. Most of the actors, political as well as economical, are afraid to commit in these States because they are seen as too "dangerous".
This conference on fragile States aims to explain what kind of experiences -positive or negative - took place on the field. By explaining how and why they were a success or a failure, we wish to contribute better knowledge to the political actors and to the public.
The conference will begin with the presentation of a report edited by OECD. Our guests will present their experience on these States. We aim to question the stereotypes about fragile States and to make the public understand that they are not necessarily dangerous.

Brussels, Germany, France and Italy Facing the Energy and Industrial Crises: Coordinated or Diverging Trajectories?
Amidst soaring defense spending, higher borrowing costs, erosion of energy intensive industries, renewed energy price hikes and possibly physical shortages, the European Union and its Member States are again struggling to stabilize the European economies. Governments are tempted by uncoordinated, short-term moves while in Brussels, there is a struggle between the “more of the same” and the “scrap it largely” approaches to the transition.
Geopolitical stakes of the New Moon race
As the United States, China, and India solidify their lunar ambitions, Europe is still seeking to define its stance: should it be a reliable partner or an autonomous strategic player? This conference will examine the stakes of this new race to the Moon and Europe’s interest in asserting itself as a lunar power through partnerships, industrial ambitions, and whether its participation in the new lunar race serves as a lever for strategic autonomy and internal cohesion, or an illustration of its dependence.
