Five women from four different European countries: The Netherlands, Italy, Germany, and Belgium. Just graduated with a Master in European Studies in the context of a global pandemic, we decided to use the knowledge achieved to reflect on the global challenges the pandemic is bringing on the EU – weakened by Brexit, the growth of Eurosceptic feelings across Europe, and the so-defined migration crisis that tested European solidarity – and on the rest of the world. Our scope has now increasingly broadened - our articles aim to reflect on current global events and challenges, offer critical analysis and transfer knowledge to a broader audience to encourage reflection and foster understanding.
