Events at the Jacques Delors Centre

The Jacques Delors Centre regularly hosts large and small events that are open to the public. We would like to get in touch with you, discuss ideas and concepts and present our work. During the semester, our research section hosts the weekly European Governance Colloquium. Our flagship think tank event is EU to go, a 30-minute breakfast on a European policy topic that we organise every 4-6 weeks. You find all our events on this page.
