    Policy Voices | Reactions from Europe: Trump is in, time for the EU to step up

    Final results are in and are devastating for US Democrats. Republicans not only won the White House but they also regained control of the Senate and held on to the House achieving the government trifecta. In the end, Donald Trump won the election by only 2 percentage points but looking at the electoral map it certainly doesn’t look like that. The US map has been swept by a red wave as Trump succeeded in winning in all seven battleground states. Democrats have spent the last week enwrapped in a blame game starting with the US President himself. Would things have been different if Biden had stepped down earlier? Was Kamala set up for failure as she was given only 100 days to make her bid for President? In today’s episode, we are bringing you a collection of reactions to Trump’s victory from all over Europe. We talked to people from Romania, Denmark, Italy, Netherlands, Sweden, and the UK at last week’s event from Friends of Europe State of Europe. What you will hear in today’s episode are fresh reactions to the results of the US elections as these all took place less than 24 hours after the results were announced. What stands out is a unified call for Europe to rise to the occasion. You will hear from Ciarán Devane, Executive Director of the Centre for Trust, Peace and Social Relations and Trustee of Friends of Europe, Ahmed Abdirahman, Founder & CEO of Järvaveckan and 2024 European Young Leader (EYL40), Anders Storgaard, Member of the Frederiksberg City Council and 2024 European Young Leader (EYL40), Karien van Gennip, former Dutch Minister of Social Affairs and Employment, Simina Tulbure, Member of the Chamber of Deputies of Romania, Gregg Jones, Regional Managing Director of the Brussels Hub of Coventry University, Jon Worth, Political Blogger and Campaigner and 2012 European Young Leader (EYL40), and Giulio Barbolani di Montauto, of the European Space Agency (ESA).

    Policy Voices | A glaciologist and a greentech entrepreneur on a mission to fight climate change

    With COP29 starting in just a few days, world leaders are heading to Azerbaijan with images of Spanish towns wiped out by water and cars piled up on streets that hide the true devastation of one of the worst floods in Europe of this century. In this episode of Policy Voices released ahead of COP29, host Catarina Vila Nova speaks with two European Young Leaders (EYL40) from this year’s class: Lubomila Jordanova, Founder & CEO of Plan A, and Heïdi Sevestre, Glaciologist and Deputy Secretary of the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP). From Svalbard, an archipelago located 650km north of the North Pole, Heïdi is experiencing and documenting the very unique ways climate change is impacting the Artic, which will inevitably trickle down to the rest of the world. On a mission to fight climate change, Lubomila founded Plan A in 2017, developing ground-breaking software that enables businesses to monitor and reduce emissions, while improving their environmental, social and corporate governance (ESC) performance.

    Policy Voices | Fact-checking in the era of misinformation

    Fact-checkers in the United States have been under harsh scrutiny during the US Presidential election regardless of what they choose to do. To fact-check or not to fact-check seems to be the question but for Angie Drobnic Holan, Director of the International Fact-Checking Network, journalists should never compromise on their commitment to the truth nor should they negotiate away their right to fact-check to secure an interview. In this episode of Policy Voices published during the Global Media and Information Literacy Week, host Catarina Vila Nova and Angie Drobnic Holan discuss fact-checking in the era of misinformation.

    Policy Voices | Only the US can influence Israel. But will it?

    As much as this US presidential election has been dominated by domestic affairs such as the economy and reproductive rights – the current most consequential foreign policy issue is without a doubt the risk of a regional war in the Middle East. In this week’s episode of Policy Voices, host Catarina Vila Nova sits down with Gilbert Achcar, Professor of Development Studies and International Relations at the School of Oriental and African Studies of the University of London. They discuss the differences between the approaches of Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, if any, and Europe’s limited role in the conflict. This conversation was recorded on 10 October. On 15 October, the US gave Israel an ultimatum that it would limit its military aid to Israel if humanitarian aid to Gaza doesn't dramatically increase in the next 30 days.

    Policy Voices | AI & Democracy: Collaborating for a global impact

    With the United States winning the AI race and the EU leading on legislative power, could this be the perfect match on global collaboration? It does seem like it but there might be some unintended consequences to the EU’s regulation force with the US taking a bit too personally Europe’s take on digital sovereignty. Bu despair not as this week’s guests remain optimistic nonetheless to the outlook of EU-US global collaboration on AI. After all, with the threat that China poses to both powers, there are, after all, good enough reasons to collaborate. In the fifth episode of the special series on AI & Democracy brought to you by Debating Europe, host Catarina Vila Nova speaks with Andrea Renda, Director of Research at the Centre for European Policy Studies, and Geoffrey Gertz, Senior Fellow at the Center for a New American Security, on what a global collaboration between the EU and the US on artificial intelligence looks like.

    Policy Voices | AI & Democracy: The role of policies and regulations

    When regulating artificial intelligence, we want to make sure that the policies in place are conducive to innovation and don’t become a straightjacket. But as AI becomes a part of our daily lives, the worries that it will infringe on human rights are ever more present. In the fourth episode of the special series on AI & Democracy brought to you by Debating Europe, host Catarina Vila Nova speaks with Hanne Juncher, Director of Security, Integrity and Rule of Law at the Council of Europe, who was involved in the negotiations of the Council of Europe’s Framework Convention on Artificial Intelligence and human rights, democracy and the rule of law – hailed as the first-ever international legal binding treaty in the field of artificial intelligence and democracy – and Justin Reynolds, Director for Tech Policy at the US Department of State.
