Seminar

MIDEQ and the UN University Centre for Policy Research (UNU-CPR) are hosting – “From promises to practice: towards the effective implementation of the Global Compact Migration.” 

“Piloting Skills Mobility Partnerships: Lessons learned from the MATCH project and the way forward” will take place on 17^th of November 2022 in Brussels, from 9:30 to 17:30, in a hybrid format! 

The ITEM annual conference in Groningen will focus on the impact of border regions on security, health and energy supply for the inhabitants of Europe’s internal borders. The current social developments in the fields of energy, health and safety still show that in order to tackle barriers, it is important to work together with partners on both sides of the border to arrive at the right casuistry, a joint concrete agenda and a structural approach. The current discussion around energy and the cross-border aspects involved require stronger inter-governmental governance (multilevel governance).
