About Us
In times of crisis and uncertainty about the future of Europe, developing teaching and research on the EU as well as transferring knowledge to students, political elites, media and civil society on the central role played by the EU as a provider of public policies appears to be crucial. The main objective of this project is to continue the intense work developed by the Jean Monnet Chair in European Policies (EUPOL) between 2018 and 2021 (Jean Monnet Chair Call 2018) in order to address EU contemporary challenges through the demonstration of the added value of the European Union as a unique political organization. In terms of teaching, research and knowledge transfer contents, the ambition is to contribute to a better knowledge of the EU as a global provider of public policies both within and beyond EU borders.
