GLOBE
Global Governance and the European Union
Funded by the European Commission’s Horizon 2020 program, the GLOBE (‘Global Governance and the European Union: Future Trends and Scenarios’) project addresses strategic priorities identified in the EU Global Strategy. By developing new theoretical and methodological approaches, GLOBE will provide policymakers, academics and the general public with an analytical grip on the state of play in global governance. The project hopes to equip national and European policymakers with tools to identify constraints and opportunities in a set of global governance scenarios for 2030 and 2050.
GLOBE is coordinated by Institut Barcelona d’Estudis Internacionals (IBEI), and runs from January 2019 until December 2022. The project brings together an academic consortium of ten partners from eight countries, composed of European and international academics and policymakers, including Institut Barcelona d'Estudis Internacionals (Spain); Esade Business & Law School (Spain); Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (Belgium); University College London (UK); Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin fur Socialforschung (Germany); Hebrew University of Jerusalem (Israel); Facultad Latinoamericana Ciencias Sociales (Argentina); Universitas Bina Nusantara (Indonesia); ISGlobal Barcelona Institute for Global Health (Spain); and Peking University (China). The strength of this consortium lies in the first-class academic expertise of top European and international scholars, which will guarantee not only high-level analysis of the past and present problems of global governance but also a set of solid forward-looking trends and scenarios.
Within the GLOBE project, EsadeGeo leads the work packages on security and migration (WP4) and foresight exercises and scenario-building (WP9), while also contributing to workstreams on innovative global governance research methods and recommendations and strategies for policymakers based on global governance scenarios.
This project has received funding from the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme of the European Union under grant agreement no. 822654.
