ReConnect China Dialog? Conditions, Constraints, and Futures of EU\u2013China Engagement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

12 June, 2026
Egmont Palace, Place du Petit Sablon, 8, B-1000, Brussels<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference \u201cReConnect China Dialogue? Conditions, Constraints, and Futures of EU\u2013China Engagement\u201d offers a multidimensional overview of the current state of EU\u2013China relations, bringing together perspectives from economics, politics, technology, and international affairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programme is structured to explore possible futures of EU\u2013China engagement by examining key turning points, emerging constraints, and alternative scenarios shaping the relationship. Particular attention is given to recent internal developments in China \u2014 including technological, economic, and social transformations \u2014 as well as China\u2019s expanding global ambitions in the political and strategic arenas, and how these dynamics may influence its engagement with the European Union.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, conference panels explore new and evolving geographical dimensions of China\u2019s economic and political influence, with a focus on regions such as the Arctic and Africa, where interests increasingly intersect with those of the EU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The final session synthesises these discussions by outlining potential scenarios for future EU\u2013China engagement, highlighting risks, opportunities, and strategic choices facing European policymakers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
