EUROPEUM Institute for European Policy is part of the European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) network through the EDGE COST Action and was among the network's secondary proposers. The network currently brings together researchers from 24 European countries and also collaborates with partners in Canada, the United States and Hong Kong SAR. EUROPEUM is represented in the Action by its researchers, Rebeka Hengalová, Carlos Gómez del Tronco and Kristína Chlebáková.

The goal of the “The Czech Republic in 2050” project is to support the enhancement of society’s resilience against external and internal threats, to strengthen citizens’ interest in public affairs, and to encourage their involvement in participatory processes.

The digital transformation of the labour market poses significant challenges to existing legal protection systems. New forms of (self)employment are created that fall outside the scope of existing labour and social rights, the way algorithms function is often not transparent and highly digitised work often goes hand in hand with worker isolation.

BuildFair brings fairness back into the discussion by focusing on digitalisation and migration, two priorities of the EU’s Strategic Agenda 2024–2029. Digital transformation is changing the way citizens interact with governments, institutions and each other, but not everyone has the same access to digital services. Migration is an area where key EU values such as human dignity, solidarity and equality before the law are directly at stake. At the same time, debates about fairness are often pushed aside, either because digital policy is seen as too technical or because migration debates are dominated by security concerns.

The Transport modernisation and decarbonisation in a regional and international perspective project explores transport decarbonisation in Czech regions and provides an in-depth analysis of transport systems status quo, their availability, accessibility, and affordability, and exploring sustainable mobility trends, innovations, and policy pathways for long-term resilience. The topics are explored from the regional governance level in Czechia and abroad, contributing to best practice sharing and international as well as intra-national exchange.

The EUROPEUM Institute for European Policy is a delegate member of the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum (EAP-CSF).

Countless fake news stories, falsehoods, and lies spread daily in the public sphere and on social media, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish them. In the next public recording of the Café Evropa podcast, we will focus on the linguistic devices, expressions, and constructions that are typically used or abused to create misleading information.

What does the current closer relationship between Canada and the EU mean? What future holds for transatlantic relations, and what geopolitical challenges will the 27 EU member states face in the coming year? After the summer break, join us for a public debate at the Europa Experience center, where we’ll discuss the latest developments in the European Parliament and Ursula von der Leyen’s debate with MEPs on the state of the European Union and its future direction.

The project aims to engage, inform and build capacity of Czech journalists and editors in the context of EU climate policy and green transition as applied in Czechia. The project builds on the first edition of the Green Broadcast which was developed in the first half of 2025.

Are you interested in climate protection and the green transition? Do you have previous experience with research projects and climate-related topics? Would you like to work in an international team? Read on—this job opening might be just for you!

On August 21, we traditionally commemorate the invasion by Soviet troops and the end of Czechoslovakia’s path toward freedom. But where do we stand today—what threats does today’s Russia pose to us?

Come join us for the next live recording of the Café Evropa podcast! This time, the topic is conversion therapy—our guests will discuss why it is dangerous and why the public shouldn’t ignore it.
