20131202PHT29583_originalThe European Parliament recently approved the EU’s multiannual financial framework for 2014-2020, providing €960 billion for European budgets over the next seven years. But what is the added value of investment flowing from the EU budget back to member states? What values should this investment support? These are the questions that will be debated on 5 December when the ReAct debate takes place in one of Europe’s foremost financial centres, Frankfurt am Main in Germany.

This third event in the ReACt series will start on Thursday, 5 December, at 14h. You can follow it live via the link on the right. Comment on Twitter with the #reactfrankfurt hashtag.Issues?

  • Solidarity is one of the fundamentals of the EU, but is the gap  between net contributors and net recipients to the EU budget too big?
  • What does EU spending on border-free travel, single market, and security bring? How is this linked to quality of life in the EU?
  • Jobs and economic growth: the role of EU investment

Who?

  • Dr. Daniela Schwarzer (Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik)
  • Prof. Dr. Gerhard Untiedt (Gesellschaft für Finanz- und Regionalanalysen)
