Central European Initiative Forum

Thirty years after the foundation of the Central European Initiative (CEI), despite their reciprocal geopolitical and economic differences, CEI member countries are still facing similar challenges when it comes to the downside of economic globalisation. On the occasion of the Italian Presidency, the CEI Dialogue Forum is a unique opportunity to address some of today’s major economic challenges, such as mobility and youth employment, or the need for a balance between competition, public policies and modern entrepreneurship. Launched by the Istituto Affari Internazionali in cooperation with the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation and the Central European Initiative, the CEI Dialogue Forum aims at stimulating a frank and open dialogue between 17 experts from the region, representing institutions, the industry, academia and civil society to exchange ideas, highlight new forms of regional cooperation and provide policy recommendations on how CEI could facilitate fairer economic trends in its member countries.
