Practical information
Lunch debate introduced by Christophe Bertossi (Centre Migrations et Citoyennetés de l'Ifri), Hector Cebolla Boado (Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia Madrid), Danièle Joly (University of Warwick) and Johannes Knickenberg (Katholisches Forum Leben in der Illegalität).
Based on the results of a project conducted by the Center for Migrations and Citizenship (Ifri) in five European capitals on the issue of irregular migrants, this conference will reassess the limits of migratory policies in Europe, through a comparison between three very different countries with regards to immigration policies, and regularisation more specifically: the United Kingdom, Germany and Spain. What issues does the presence of irregular migrants at the local level create? Is regularisation the only solution to the issue of irregular migration? How can the inconsistencies of current European policies be overcome?
This debate forms part of the "Ifri's Tuesdays in Brussels".
Participation Fee (Except members): 10€

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.
