On 28 June 2016 German Federal Minister for Foreign Affairs, Frank-Walter <\/strong>Steinmeier<\/strong>, together with the German Federal Minister of State for Europe, Michael Roth<\/strong>, officially launched the DIALOGUE ON EUROPE-project at the Europasaal of the German Federal Foreign Office in Berlin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this occasion leading European intellectuals such as Prof. Brendan Simms<\/strong> (University of Cambridge), Dr. Nathalie Tocci<\/strong> (Istituto Affari Internazionali, Rome) and Prof. Henrik Enderlein<\/strong> (Jaques-Delors-Institut Berlin), Thanos Dokos<\/strong> (ELIAMEP, Athens), Marina Costa Lobo<\/strong> (Institute of Public Policy, Lisbon), Marta Romero de la Cruz<\/strong> (Fundaci\u00f3n Alternativas, Madrid) addressed the fundamental overall question in front of 250 represantatives from NGOs, thinktanks, academia, culture, media from all over Europe: Where do we stand after the BREXIT vote and how do we get back on track again? The panel discussion was chaired by Dr. Gregor Peter Schmitz<\/strong> (WirtschaftsWoche, Berlin).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frank-Walter Steinmeier<\/strong>, German Federal Minister for Foreign Affairs, discussed on a panel with Jeremy Cliffe<\/strong> (The Economist, London) and 5 next generation thinkers from Greece, Italy, France, Portugal and Spain about Rethinking Europe. The presented visions included new ideas about migration as seen from the perspective of a transit country, freedom as a key to re-building Europe during crises, diversity as Europe\u2019s untapped resource, education as renewal of EU\u00b4s social contract as well as social mobility. \u201eWhat we need is the courage not to get absorbed by a mood of crisis. Now more than ever\u201c, Steinmeier insisted, \u201cEurope needs fresh and forward-looking ideas from the civil society!\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michael Roth<\/strong>, German Minister of State for Europe, underlined in his speech that Europe \u201cis too important to leave it to the responsibility of politicians only. We need the courage to develop and share ideas \u2013 across national, institutional, political, sectoral boundaries. And we need a new spirit. Therefore we want to bring together key actors from civil society\u201c.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dominic Schwickert<\/strong>, director of Das Progressive Zentrum, concluded: \u201eNot only the populists from the disintergrative camp are responsible for the current crises. But also the unwillingness of the integrative camp to stand up together endangers the whole idea of the European integration process as well. We have to fight for our ideas of an open, integrative and innovative Europe. This is the reason why we initiated the DIALOGUE ON EUROPE-project\u201c.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference was followed by a reception including a cultural-political talk on Europe between Michael Roth<\/strong> and the Austrian writer Robert Menace <\/strong>organised in cooperation with Allianz Kulturstiftung<\/em> and the European Games Group AG<\/em>. Menasse: \u201eIn contrast to the founding fathers of Europe we haven\u00b4t learnt to think within the category of disruptive change and beyond the limit of eras. We have to completely re-invent democracy by developing a new supranational form of democracy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
