29:37

As part of the revision of the EU’s animal welfare legislation, the European Commission presented in December 2023 a proposal for new rules on the protection of animals during transport. The draft regulation aims to limit journey times, require rest breaks, set temperature thresholds and introduce minimum space allowances, reflecting calls for higher welfare standards. Since then, the European Parliament has proposed thousands of amendments to the text, with many observers warning that these changes risk watering down the original proposal and weakening its impact. In this Policy Triangle discussion, Tilly Metz MEP, Dr Joanna Swabe from Humane World for Animals Europe, and Nancy De Briyne from the Federation of Veterinarians of Europe explore whether the Commission’s proposal and Parliament’s response can deliver meaningful progress on animal welfare during transport or risk falling short of expectations.…

1:30:34

In February 2025, the European Commission launched an omnibus initiative to reduce administrative burdens on businesses, and provide more harmonisation within the European market. It also aims to make EU industry more competitive. Several regulations are covered by the package. The Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), and the EU Taxonomy will all see major changes. The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) has also been slightly amended. These new measures are designed to enhance Europe's global competitiveness by alleviating regulatory pressures on businesses, potentially saving companies billions of euros. For instance, the CSRD has been reduced in scope, now affecting only companies with over 1000 employees. However, the proposal has sparked controversy. Critics argue that loosening these regulations could undermine corporate accountability and hinder progress toward the EU's climate goals. Some stakeholders also argue that SMEs have not been sufficiently included in the consultation period leading to the publication of the package, as opposed to big corporations who have contributed widely. Listen to this Euractiv Virtual Conference to discuss what the omnibus package means in practice, how it affects European SMEs, and how it can impact the EU’s sustainability credentials. Questions to be addressed include: - What does the revision of the CSDDD, CSRD, and EU taxonomy mean concretely? How will it impact European manufacturers? - Are the updated regulations implementable and manageable for companies of all sizes across Europe? - What are the challenges that European SMEs could face with the new omnibus? - How would supply chain due diligence requirements be impacted? What can be expected in terms of European competitiveness? - Can it be expected that the omnibus will be fully implemented in its current form?…

The Automotive industry as a whole is living through systemic changes and challenges at an unprecedented pace. Technological developments in vehicle components, together with the exponential rate of its connectivity, are making manufacturing, driving, and repair and maintenance a different reality. At the same time, e-mobility solutions and the deployment of Electric Vehicles, as well as the arrival of an entirely new kind of engines and parts deeply impact the entire automotive ecosystem. One crucial part of the industry is navigating these changes with steady force and leading in innovation and circularity practices: the Independent Aftermarket (IAM). In the current geopolitical incertitude, rising trade wars and protectionism, the European Commission has established as one of its main priorities for the starting mandate the reinforcement of the automotive industry and European companies' competitiveness. In this context, the IAM in general and parts distribution and wholesaling in particular, represented by FIGIEFA, call on a holistic approach of the entire automotive ecosystem for this Action Plan and future European legislation. The Roland Berger Aftermarket Panorama study that will be presented at this event will show the extent to which the IAM is capital in driving the sector and the whole industrial competitiveness for Europe, together with an unmatched economic and societal impact. In the aftermath of the publication of the European Commission Automotive Industrial Action Plan released on the 5th of March, we will assess what is ahead of us by bringing the voice of the IAM industry, consumers, and policymakers together. We will discuss the strengths of the plan, important missing elements, and how the Independent Aftermarket is a key part of the industry that needs to be in the core of the European institutions strategies if they want this plan’s objectives to be achieved.…

Mental wellbeing has become more present on the EU policymakers’ agenda in recent years, especially when it comes to young people. According to the European Commission , nearly half of European youth aged 15-29 have unmet mental health needs, compared to 23% of adults. Moreover, about half of the mental health problems affecting adults have their onset during or before adolescence. Over the past years, with an acceleration of global and regional crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic, mental health problems among people aged between 15 and 24 have only been exacerbated, and even doubled, as the figures show . Feelings of depression, anxiety and loneliness are much more common in young people than in adults. Excessive use of digital technology in youth also has more significant negative effects, including reduction in physical social contacts, social comparison, increased anxiety or decreased self-esteem, cyberbullying, addiction to online gaming etc. According to OECD data , the economic burden of mental wellbeing among youth can rise to up to 4% of EU GDP annually, equivalent to over €600 billion per year, owing primarily to reduced productivity, healthcare costs, and social welfare expenditure. In 2023, the European Commission announced that, as of 2025, the European Health Interview Survey (EHIS) will include additional data on mental health to ensure a stronger monitoring and assessment of progress on mental health across the EU. However, some stakeholders argue that a lot more focus should be placed on prevention and promotion of youth mental wellbeing, and that a systemic change is required in order to improve the situation. Listen to this Euractiv Hybrid Conference to discuss how the EU could foster a more supportive environment for youth mental health. Questions to be addressed include: - How can the EU increase support for prevention and promotion of youth mental wellbeing? What would a systemic change look like? - What are some of the best practices regarding youth mental wellbeing implemented across Europe? What do successful initiatives look like? - What forms of partnerships should prevail – between the public, private, civil society sectors - to implement successful initiatives? - How can youth perspectives be best reflected in youth policies?…

Renewable and low-carbon molecules are set to play a key role in Europe’s transition to a sustainable and decarbonised future. The Hydrogen and decarbonised gas market package entered into force in August 2024, providing a clear regulatory framework for the transport of these energy transition gases and diversifying supply sources. The package also aims to contribute to the EU’s energy resilience, security and strategic autonomy objectives. Scaling up and prioritising investments in repurposed infrastructure – such as pipelines for transporting hydrogen and carbon dioxide – are seen as central for energy system integration and stability. These investments are also important deliverables for the new 5-year term of the European institutions, which prioritise growth and competitiveness alongside climate neutrality and strategic energy sovereignty. A European hydrogen backbone is a major step to deliver on decarbonisation. Within this framework, repurposing gas pipelines to hydrogen service can cut investment costs by 50-80% compared to creating new pipelines. The EU Industrial carbon management strategy calls for the implementation of a net-zero industry act target of at least 50 million tonnes of CO2 storage capacity. This will require connecting emitters with storage sites. However, little detail is provided on how to enable hydrogen and CO2 infrastructures on time and at the right scale to serve transition to a new energy landscape. Listen to this Euractiv Hybrid Conference to discuss the role of repurposed pipelines in delivering the EU’s decarbonisation targets. Questions to be addressed include: - What are the best strategies to address the contribution that hydrogen and carbon dioxide infrastructure can provide to achieve EU climate targets in a cost-efficient manner? - How can the current regulatory and funding frameworks for hydrogen and carbon dioxide infrastructure help - or hinder - the necessary investments? - How and to what extent does repurposing of natural gas pipelines help in reducing energy costs for industry competing on a global scale and lowering the bills for EU households?…

The EU Forest Strategy for 2030, a key component of the European Green Deal, aims to strengthen the protection, restoration, and resilience of forests across the EU. Forests play a critical role as carbon sinks, as well as preserving biodiversity, and supporting ecosystems. Enhancing their resilience and diversity is essential for better managing environmental challenges and adapting to climate change. The strategy includes a mix of regulatory, financial, and voluntary measures for 2021-2030, focusing on forests' multifunctional role. Key actions involve promoting sustainable forest management, increasing forest size and biodiversity by planting 3 billion trees by 2030, and offering financial incentives for forest owners and managers to adopt environmentally friendly practices. And currently under review by the European Parliament and the Council is the introduction of regulation on EU forest monitoring, reporting, and data collection. Listen to this Euractiv Virtual Conference to reflect on the EU Forest Strategy for 2030 and assess its progress as it nears the halfway point. Questions to be addressed include: - As the halfway mark approaches, what are the key achievements of the EU Forest Strategy so far, and where does it fall short? - Have member states aligned their efforts, or are there significant disparities in implementation? Which countries have seen the most success, and why? - How have forest owners, managers, and the broader forest industry responded to the strategy? Are the financial incentives and support measures sufficient to enable them to adopt environmentally friendly practices? - Has the planting of 3 billion new trees by 2030 progressed as planned, and what challenges remain in achieving this goal?

Renewable carbon is carbon originating from a sustainably sourced renewable resource that can be naturally or artificially grown or replenished within aforeseeable time frame by processes found in nature. Unlike fossil carbon from the geosphere, renewable carbon does not reintroduce long-stored carbon into the atmosphere, making it a more sustainable option. Sustainably sourced wood provides a reliable, renewable, material, offering various applications in construction, furniture, packaging, clothing, bio-chemicals and renewable energy. Renewable raw materials, such as wood, play a crucial role in developing a more circular economy. As losses and degradation always take place, no material can be reused or recycled forever. Virgin renewable raw materials can be supplied according to principles of circular economy, for example wood from regenerative forestry. These wood-based solutions align with the objectives of the European Commission’s proposed EU Circular Economy Act, which aims to transform industrial resource use, minimise waste, and boost Europe’s competitiveness. Wood can serve as an effective alternative to non-renewable materials like plastics. When combining with other construction materials like concrete and steel, wood can pave the way towards more sustainable low-carbon building. Listen to this Euractiv Hybrid Conference to discuss the role of wood-based value chains and renewable carbon in achieving a more circular economy in Europe. Questions to be discussed include: - What role do wood-based value chains currently play in the EU circular economy? What is their potential? - How can the EU promote the utilisation of wood in hybrid construction? - What are the environmental benefits of the use of renewable carbon as a resource? - What policy measures are needed to benefit from renewable carbon and wood-base?…

With the EU Public Country by Country Reporting and the CSRD Directive having entered into force in 2024, Tax Transparency will become a reality within the EU legal reporting framework. Debates are still active on the merits of such initiatives, with some companies gradually have become more transparent about their tax affairs, while others have kept their tax cards closer to their chest. Ultimately, in 2026, qualifying companies will have to disclose their CbC-Reporting and need to include comprehensive information in their CSRD-reporting, insofar tax is considered a material topic. For the last decade there has been a lot of focus in the EU on additional reporting and anti-abuse measures, which ultimately had lead to a high cost of tax compliance. According to the Draghi Report this has resulted in the EU having proportionally smaller companies compared to the US.

As the EU embarks on a new mandate, its ambitious goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 is driving a renewed focus on shaping a regulatory framework that fosters sustainability and preserves Europe’s competitiveness. With the Draghi report underscoring the importance of a competitive and sustainable Europe, and growing momentum for harmonising climate policies across the Single Market, this event offers a timely platform to discuss how the forthcoming EU Green Claims Directive (GCD) can support these objectives, and the role that Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) plays in this transition. The GCD is set to be a cornerstone in enhancing transparency and integrity in green claims, helping to combat greenwashing and provide consumers with reliable information. However, it is also important to ensure that the Directive does not unintentionally hinder the use of the VCM, which is an essential tool for mobilising substantial private sector investment in climate action. Far from being a ‘licence to pollute,’ high-integrity carbon credits support valuable environmental projects and accelerate the transition to net-zero. With the GCD soon entering interinstitutional negotiations, this event will bring together policymakers, industry leaders, and experts to discuss how the GCD aligns with the EU’s broader climate objectives and how the VCM can continue to play a vital role in the EU’s decarbonisation efforts, all while maintaining transparency, trust, and market integrity.

Free and independent media is a key pillar of democracy, but recently, worrying trends have emerged across Europe. In response, a new legal instrument was adopted at EU level - the European Media Freedom Act - which came into force on 7 May 2024. Most of its provisions will be applicable by 8 August 2025. The F.R.E.I.H.E.I.T project (Fact-checking & Reliable European Information to Help Europe Integrate Together) aims to address foreign interference in European media. Through fact-checked, independent editorial production, freelance journalists from Europe and the Eastern Neighbourhood are working to combat disinformation and promote reliable information. Media freedom remains under pressure in many Eastern Neighbourhood countries. Critics claim that Georgia struggles with disinformation, Moldova faces news bias, and Russian propaganda is replicated in Azerbaijan. There are also reports of an increase in disinformation in Armenia, and a deterioration of free speech in Belarus. Listen to this Euractiv Virtual Conference to discuss the state of media freedom in Europe. Journalists from the F.R.E.I.H.E.I.T project, reporting from Eastern Europe, will bring their on-the-ground experience to the conversation. Some questions to be addressed include: - What are the most pressing challenges to media freedom within the EU, and how do they differ from those in the Eastern Neighbourhood? - Does the European Media Freedom Act adequately address these issues? What improvements could be made? - How can EU countries provide more support to Eastern Neighbourhood journalists facing media freedom challenges? - How can EU-Eastern Neighbourhood collaboration be strengthened to combat shared disinformation threats?

An estimated 67 million Europeans rely on heat provided by district heating, which is currently undergoing a decarbonisation process to achieve the goal of being climate-neutral by 2050. However, different district heating systems are at different stages of progress towards net-zero. Some systems, particularly low-temperature district heating networks, have already been fully decarbonised through the use of technologies like heat pumps and geothermal energy. In contrast, large-scale district heating systems that require high temperatures face more limited options, such as biomass, electrode boilers (as part of power-to-heat solutions), and energy storage. A key principle of the energy transition is to ensure that no one is left behind, including customers of district heating systems. This transition presents a range of challenges, not only technical and technological, but also regulatory and economic. These difficulties will be especially pronounced in large, densely developed cities. To address this, it is essential to establish regulatory frameworks and effective mechanisms, in line with the Fit for 55 package, that will support investment and ensure the transformation is both feasible and acceptable for heat recipients. Listen to this Euractiv Hybrid Conference to discuss the road to net-zero of district heating systems. Questions to be discussed include: - What is the future role of district heating systems? With rising heatwaves across Europe, what potential do these systems have to provide both heating and cooling? - What technological and regulatory solutions can be implemented to meet the new targets for energy-efficient district heating and cooling systems? - How can the cost burden of the transformation be minimised for end users? What financial and regulatory tools are required to support the transition? - What is the potential of power-to-heat solutions and thermal storage, and how can they complement the role of large-scale cogeneration units? - Do heating networks pose limitations to the energy transition? How can high-temperature district heating systems be decarbonised? - What regulatory frameworks are necessary for the district heating sector to effectively manage the transformation process?…

The European Union is intensifying efforts to improve consumer protection in the rapidly evolving digital landscape. At the same time, industries are exploring how new technological solutions can be used to safeguard consumers in innovative new ways. The forthcoming "Digital Fairness Act" will impact a range of industries, from e-commerce to entertainment, which will need to adhere to new standards, including transparent marketing practices and measures to prevent addictive behaviours, all aimed at creating a safer and more equitable digital environment for consumers. The Commission has also launched a fitness check of EU consumer law on digital fairness to assess whether the current legal framework is sufficient to guarantee a high level of consumer protection in the evolving digital landscape. Where the upcoming implementation of the Artificial Intelligence Act specifically aims to regulate AI systems and their application in industry and the Digital Services Act (DSA) regulates online content, these new measures seek to level the digital playing field, address unfair practices, and ensure consumers are thoroughly protected both online and offline. Lsiten to this Euractiv Hybrid Conference to discuss the protection of consumers in the digital environment. Questions to be discussed include: - What role does the Digital Services Act play in holding online platforms accountable for ensuring a high level of safety and privacy for consumers? - What role should public consultation and stakeholder engagement play in shaping future digital fairness legislation to ensure it addresses real consumer concerns? - What lessons can be learned from the lottery industry in their ongoing efforts to safeguard consumers and prevent addictive gambling behaviours?…

Renewable energy projects require substantial front-end investment as well as complicated permitting and licensing in order to operate, but what happens when there are disputes in the sector? In 1994 the European Union signed the Energy Charter Treaty which provided for International Arbitration through the World Bank ICSID Court. However, earlier this year the EU signalled it’s intent to leave the Treaty, citing its support for traditional forms of energy. Why then are nearly all of the outstanding claims in renewable energy? And what impact will leaving the Treaty have on renewable investor confidence in Europe? As an example, we will discuss the Spanish Renewable Awards. Spain has defaulted on more than 25 international arbitration awards amounting to €1.56 billion in compensation for the retroactive withdrawal of renewable premiums. This amount is further increased by over €315 million in legal and financial overcosts resulting from non-compliance with the rulings. The situation has become so bad that numerous enforcement procedures and asset seizures are in play through courts in the United Kingdom, Belgium, Australia, and the United States. The Spanish Government has been accused of taking an ideological position to refuse to settle these claims and has attempted to persuade the European Commission to retrospectively declare these awards as ’state aid’. If this is proven to be the case, what message does this give to large renewable investors about the rule of law in Europe? Join us for this important and lively discussion with renewable energy investors, senior litigators and European officials. Organised by: Aream Group SA Media Partner: Euractiv…

In 2020, as an integral part of the European Green Deal, the EU presented its Farm to Fork Strategy, aimed at making Europe's food systems more resilient, healthier and more sustainable. The Farm to Fork strategy was the first to integrate all aspects of the food chain (agricultural, ecological, and nutritional) into a unified approach to food systems, moving beyond traditional farm policy. Scientific evidence underlines the urgent and exacerbated need for more sustainable and healthier food systems. This is due to factors related to the climate crisis, such as soil degradation and a decline in biodiversity, as well as other factors such as increased obesity levels in many countries. Many stakeholders argue that the transition to sustainable food systems needs to be accomplished in a manner that respects and preserves Europe's natural resources. Farmers play a key role in this transition. Recent protests throughout the EU highlighted that the upcoming mandate will be critical in delivering the necessary assistance and funding farmers' needs for this transition. Listen to this Euractiv Hybrid Conference to discuss the way forward to more resilient and sustainable food systems in the EU. Questions to be discussed include: - What are the main financial challenges currently faced by farmers in the transition towards sustainable food systems? - How can EU policy frameworks be adapted to provide more flexible and financial support to farmers transitioning to sustainable practices? - How can we create favourable market conditions that protect natural resources while transitioning to sustainable food systems?…

Neurotechnology, where neuroscience meets technology, includes all the tools and methods that are used to improve our understanding of how the human brain functions as well as what can be done to improve or repair the brain’s capacities. These advancements are opening new possibilities across various aspects of life, from healthcare to daily activities. However, the rapid development of neurotechnology raises important questions regarding its societal impact and regulatory requirements. As neurotechnologies intersect with various EU legislative and policy initiatives, a comprehensive and integrated approach will be necessary for the EU to establish a legal framework governing these technologies. Moreover, certain applications of neurotechnology could pose challenges related to fundamental rights, such as concerns about mental surveillance or consent to collection and processing of brain data. The EU will need to identify potential gaps in existing fundamental rights’ protections and address them to ensure neurotechnology advances responsibly. A key element of the EU's approach will be engaging stakeholders and ensuring inclusiveness in discussions on the regulation and application of neurotechnology. Listen to this Euractiv Hybrid Conference to discuss neurotechnology's rapid evolution and its legal implications in the EU policy-landscape. Questions to be discussed include: -With the evolution of other technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, the effects of neurotechnologies become even more elusive. How can we anticipate their long-term consequences? -Do neurotechnologies fit into existing fundamental rights’ protections or do we need new human rights frameworks and rights for the brain? -How can we ensure equal access to these technologies and address the risk of exacerbated or even new types of inequalities? -How do we prepare a legislative framework for neurotechnology, with a focus on inclusive and participatory discussions?…
