Live on YouTube at 4:00 PM (CET)

​John Bunzl (UK) in conversation with Nico Andreas Heller
Towards a World Free of Destructive Global Competition
Live on YouTube at 4:00 PM (CET)

​John believes that solving global problems requires solutions to be implemented simultaneously by nations so that no nation loses out. He argues that solutions need to cover multiple issues, so what a nation loses on one issue it can gain on another, and that citizens need to use their vote to incentivise politicians to cooperate globally.

Roberto Castaldi (Italy) in conversation with Nico Andreas Heller
Integration. Federalism. Democracy.
​Live on YouTube at 4:00 PM (CET)

Roberto argues that, for the EU to prosper in the long term, it will need to abolish the principle of unanimity and become a fully-fledged federation, endowed with fiscal powers, a single external representation and defence capability and – to preserve our liberal democracy – effective mechanisms for the protection of the rule of law.

Lene Rachel Andersen (Denmark) in conversation with Nico Andreas Heller
The Bildung Rose Model of a Functioning Society
​Live on YouTube at 4:00 PM (CET)

​Lene believes that we need 'bildung' in the original sense (not just education), so that everybody understands their society and the changes that are happening – and thus feels empowered to engage and make a difference. At present that is not the case. To get there, Lene argues, our current school systems need to rethink what they are doing.

Young-Jin Choi (Germany) in conversation with Nico Andreas Heller
The Toolbox for Rapid Greenhouse Gas Emission Reductions
Live on YouTube at 4:00 PM (CET)

​​In order to accelerate the speed at which decarbonisation occurs, governments can utilize a variety of climate policies. One of the most transformative measures within that context is effective carbon pricing. To ensure both sustained public support and a just transition, Young-Jin argues that it is of critical importance to use a substantial share of carbon pricing revenues for a climate income.
