Focus will be on an applied reflection and policy assessment of the cultural and value basis of the European integration process, seen from an internal and external perspective. Special attention will be given to the specific sources and references to imagine Europe’s future as a plural entity and a socio-economic model shaped by a community of shared values, spaces and encounters as well as to the references and sources for Europe’s role and responsibility in a plural and globalizing world.
The WS is structured in three work sessions:
- Session 1 will deal with "Human Rights and Value driven Dialogues in Europe";
- Session 2 focuses on "Value driven foundations of Europe";
- Session 3 will be devoted to "Perspectives of a value oriented Europe in the World".
Among the speakers of the WS are Dr. Ulrich Bunjes (Head of the Youth Department, Council of Europe), Luk Bouckaert, (Professor Emeritus of Ethics, Catholic University of Leuven, Founder and President European SPES-forum), Christoph Eberhard (Professor, Facultés universitaires Saint Louis, Bruxelles), José Maria Gil-Robles Gil Delgado (Professor, Director European Center of Excellence, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, former President European Parliament), Hervé Pierre Guillot SJ.
