excellent presentation.

A summary of my special remark as a guest for the Society for peace studies and practise international peace conference alongside Ernest K. Gibson from International Peace Bureau (IPB). I call for a global commitment to peace, stating that "peace is not merely the absence of conflict; it is the cultivation of harmony, the flourishing of human potential, and the realization of shared aspirations." My statement outlines the challenges that lie ahead, including poverty, inequality, discrimination, and the erosion of human rights. It also calls for a paradigm shift in thinking, away from the destructive logic of conflict towards the constructive dialogue of collaboration. "We must invest in education, empowering future generations with the knowledge and skills to build a more peaceful world". "The path to peace is not without its hurdles". "There will be moments of doubt, setbacks, and entrenched resistance. Yet, we must persevere, guided by our unwavering belief in the inherent goodness of humanity and our collective capacity to overcome adversity." My statement concludes with calling for a collective commitment to dialogue, understanding, and action. "Together, we can transform the world we live in, forging a future where peace prevails, where harmony flourishes, and where the human spirit soars to its fullest potential." #peace #conflictresolution #humanity

7️⃣0️⃣ 2024 will be a very special year for us, as we are celebrating the 70th anniversary of our institution. In fact, it was in autumn 1954 that the French intellectual Alexandre Marc founded CIFE, together with other activists of the Union of European Federalists (UEF). It was a critical moment of European integration, because the year 1954 saw the failure of the European Defence Community (EDC). For Marc and other European federalists, a new approach had to be taken to pursue the goal of a unified Europe: educating European citizens to make them espouse this ideal and further it in their professional lives. With this objective in mind, CIFE was founded. 🇪🇺 70 years later, we live in a very different Europe. CIFE has changed too – it has evolved into a European institute of higher education receiving more than 150 graduate students each year, a growth we can be proud of. However, the mission of our founders remains as valid today as it was 70 years ago: 𝘚𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘌𝘶𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘦’𝘴 𝘧𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘦𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 | 𝘌𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘦𝘳 𝘱𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘱𝘳é𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘳 𝘭'𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘳 𝘥𝘦 𝘭'𝘌𝘶𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘦. 🌎 We wish all our readers – friends, partners, students, former students and faculty members of CIFE – a happy, peaceful and successful year in 2024. 👉 Read the whole address by Matthias Waechter, Director General of CIFE: https://lnkd.in/dS6kFYe5

Just wrapped up a fantastic European Institute of Public Administration (EIPA) course on EU Decision-Making! 🌱 It was an enriching experience, and I’d like to thank all the lecturers, organizers, and fellow participants. Here are my 3 highlights from the course: 1️⃣ Case Studies: A fresh look guided by Christoph Klika at my favorite #GovernanceRegulation (2018/1999) and the background of its negotiations gave me a better insight not only into the provisions but also the whole policy-making process. 💡 2️⃣ Navigating EU Documents: The EU document landscape is complex, but with some tips and tools, you can usually find your way through it and navigate this maze effectively. 🗺️ 3️⃣ Various Perspectives: The course was an excellent opportunity to connect with professionals working on diverse policy areas. The questions raised during the sessions highlighted the various ways we will apply the knowledge gained. 📚✔️ It was a great pleasure to meet everyone and I hope to stay in touch! 👋🏼
