      Through the connection of EU experts, civil society, and decision makers we seek to foster open dialogue and discuss liberal policy solutions to European challenges. Together with our liberal partners, we develop formats and campaigns to promote rule of law, free markets and human rights. Moreover, we coordinate EU co-funded projects in the field of democracy support, development cooperation and human rights protection.

    Ley de inmigración de mano de obra cualificada
    16.04.2024 Maximilian Luz Reinhardt David Henneberger

Pero hay esperanza: las reformas y un replanteamiento podrían cambiar las tornas. ¿Ganará Alemania la batalla por las mentes más brillantes?
