Analisi approfondita 13-03-2024

The new EU global health strategy, adopted by the European Commission on 30 November 2022, has been positioned as a crucial element of EU external policy, geopolitical influence and strategic autonomy. However, maintaining the long term commitment necessary for achieving global health ambitions in turbulent times remains challenging. Against this backdrop, in 2023 the Policy Foresight Unit of the European Parliamentary Research Service conducted a foresight exercise involving external experts to ...

Conflict, food insecurity and climate shocks, among other crises, have destabilised African countries in recent years and curbed economic activity.

Establishing an EU talent Pool

Briefing 02-02-2024

The problem definition and problem drivers in the impact assessment (IA) appear to be well-supported by evidence. The IA provides a well-structured analysis of the existing situation and the likelihood for the problem to persist. The IA identifies the initiative's general and specific objectives, which appear to be specific, achievable, relevant and time-bound, but not measurable, as recommended by the Better Regulation Toolbox 'S.M.A.R.T.' criteria. The IA does not define more detailed operational ...

On 15 November 2023, the European Union (EU) and its Member States signed a new partnership agreement (referred to as the 'Samoa Agreement') with member states of the Organisation of African, Caribbean and Pacific States (OACPS).

La politica di sviluppo è al centro delle politiche esterne dell'Unione europea.

I suoi obiettivi includono la promozione della crescita sostenibile, la difesa dei diritti umani e della democrazia, il conseguimento dell'uguaglianza di genere, la promozione della pace e di società inclusive e la gestione ...

Note tematiche sull'UE 08-12-2023

La cooperazione dell'UE con i paesi africani e l'Unione africana (UA) si basa su due quadri distinti: a) gli accordi di partenariato con gli Stati dell'Africa, dei Caraibi e del Pacifico (ACP) e b) la strategia comune Africa-UE. L'accordo di partenariato, firmato a Cotonou (Benin) nel 2000 tra l'UE e gli Stati ACP e che per oltre 20 anni ha costituito la base giuridica della dimensione politica, economica e di sviluppo del partenariato, è in procinto di essere sostituito da un accordo completamente ...

Africa is the continent most affected by energy poverty, with more than 40 % of its population lacking access to electricity. This is in spite of an extremely high potential for renewable energy generation and an increasing number of fossil fuel developments on the continent. Through its development cooperation programmes, the EU has committed significant funds to reduce energy poverty in its partner countries in Africa. These programmes aim to help achieve the Sustainable Development Goal 7, which ...

A commitment under the EU Treaties, policy coherence for development requires the EU and its Member States to take into account the objectives of development cooperation in all their external and internal policies that are likely to affect developing countries. Managing competing objectives is a challenge. Better awareness among EU policy-makers and a streamlined action plan could help mitigate trade-offs and improve synergies.
