The act is co-organised as part of the campaign ‘El futuro de Europa en tu Universidad’ of the European Comission, that takes the same name as the act. The debate’s aim is to approach to society, generally, and the university community, particularly, the debate about the future lines that must configure the European project, once it is formed the new European Parliament and stablished the main guidelines of work that will follow the recent chosen President of the European Comission, Úrsula van der Layen.

This roundtable’s speakers will discuss about the different topics related to the current European political context as a European green possible agreement, the changes to a digital economy, the preservation of the European social model, the democratic impulse or the role of Europe as world power, among other issues of political and humanitarian interest.

‘Las razones de Europa’ cycle will end on 12 December with the conference ‘El mundo que nos viene’ (The world that comes), by the former Minister of Foreign Affairs Josep Piqué Camps.
