“Policy-relevant research which is both scientifically grounded and able to reach into the public debate – that is what the EU's unprecedented challenges require. As the newly-established Centre for European Affairs at the Hertie School, the Jacques Delors Institute Berlin strives to achieve this by progressively integrating academic research and think tank work. The Institute was founded in September 2018 and will gradually evolve over the coming months. Its development will become visible on this provisional website.”

EU to go - Start your day with an espresso, a croissant and EU input

Once a month our researchers provide concise input on a timely EU topic before the start of the working day at 8.30 am. The event takes no longer than 30 minutes: Have an espresso, grap a croissant, and get ready for EU input. We start with a 10-minute introduction to the topic, followed by analysis, scenarios and proposals and an equally brief and interactive discussion. At 9 am sharp, the event ends. The event is usually held in German, occasionally in English.
