Kyushu University EU Centre (JMCoE-Q) Jean Monnet Symposium 2026 “The EU’s Autonomy” (Hybrid Format)
Recent changes in the international order―particularly the strains in transatlantic relations and rising global geopolitical risks―are having a significant impact on the EU’s “autonomy.” Accordingly, this event will analyze the current state and challenges of the EU’s autonomy from political, economic, and international relations perspectives, and explore the EU’s future path and role within the new international order.
