{ {{{Organised by the le EU Center of the University System of Georgia

in collaboration with Europe 2020}}} }

________

{{ {{{Topic}}} }}

The theme for this year’s event is an exploration of the security dimension in the transatlantic context. Security is defined broadly to include topics ranging from defense to environment to immigration.

__________

{{ {{{Format}}} }}

To provide coherence to our efforts, we are assembling a working group to develop focused questions that will constitute the basis of conference deliberations. These questions are calculated to address the strategic problems confronting the transatlantic relationship in security issues. Panelists will interact with one another in discussing the focus questions. A moderator will structure the discussion.

At the conclusion of the conference, the working group will generate a briefing paper that is designed to inform the policy-making process. The briefing paper will be sent to appropriate officials within the European Commission and U.S. State Department.
