As the economic effects of the pandemic spread across Europe, the EU needs to support its economy so we can guarantee stability and foster growth. As the COVID-19 pandemic puts the European Union’s strength to the test, its institutions are taking measures to cushion the economy from the impact of the crisis.

To discuss what the EU is doing to support Member States and citizens, we are holding the next Investing in the Future of Europe event entitled The EU’s plan for recovery and long-term resilience, organised by the European Movement International, in partnership with the European Investment Bank. 

After events held across Europe since 2017, this discussion will be held online today, Wednesday, 1 July 2020 (15:30-16:30). 

The panel will feature
Thomas Östros, Vice President | European Investment Bank
Valérie Hayer MEP, member of the EP’s negotiating team for the next long-term EU budget and Own Resources reform | European Parliament
Luc Tholoniat, Principal Adviser | Directorate-General for Economic and Financial Affairs, European Commission

Moderated by BBC journalist and presenter, Joe Lynam
