What Future for Europe’s Borders?
Institutional Perspectives for an Integrated Analysis
In the light of new European initiatives such as the European Commission’s upcoming “Strategy on the Future of Schengen” and the newly proposed Regulation on Border Procedures, this conference aims to gain insights into the operation of EU border controls. By bringing together different stakeholders, institutional actors and experts, we aim to have a stimulating exchange around the different challenges in this field.
