Impacting health, the environment and global governance. The challenges of taking a security approach.
Practical information
Through the bringing together of experts from the health and the environment field, "Impacting health, the environment and global governance. The challenges of taking a security approach." will stimulate a high level and interdisciplinary debate on the potential impacts of thinking of health and environmental issues as security issues.
The ‘securitization" process, by which an issue comes to be perceived as a security issue, of health and environmental issues will be put into perspective, and the potential impacts of this process on global governance structures and on the issues themselves will be debated, drawing on historical and practical case studies. Insights and recommendations on how to manage the securitization process more effectively should emerge from this process.
Seminar in English. By invitation only.

European Strategic Autonomy or New Dependence? Russian Gas, Transatlantic Pressures, and the Green Deal
European energy policy sits at the fault line of geopolitical conflict, climate obligations, and transatlantic bargaining. While Austria, Hungary, Slovakia and others remain heavily reliant on Russian gas, the EU has sought to harden its stance through sanctions -most recently with Ursula von der Leyen’s announcement of a ban on Russian LNG imports in the 19th package.
