Using the EU's Market Power to Set Global Norms and Standards

As one of the largest economies in the world, the EU has the ability to use its market power to set global norms and standards. This can take various forms: from environmental standards, through human rights and anti-corruption provisions to tech regulation. By setting high standards, the EU can help create a more sustainable and equitable global economy. Has the EU been successful in this so far? What more can it do without compromising its competitiveness?

Session objective: Making progress visible – Be surprised by current progress, witness the establishment of new good practices and find hidden treasures of transformation.

//INFO: Because of bad weather the session is going to take place in the classroom EG1 of the Volksschule Alpbach.
