European Council on Foreign Relations, together with Konrad Adenauer Foundation, are organizing a discusion on “The European values in a changing world: How can we respond to the populist wave?“.

A month before the EU elections the center-right mainstream parties need to identify the red lines that separate them from the national populists. They need to discuss how to keep their voters without crossing the red line that would mean leaving behind the values of Europe, the Christian democracy, pluralism and liberal democracy. 

We look forward to seeing you!
