Europe Desk

Insights and analysis on Europe’s internal state of affairs and its changing role in a shifting international order.


A region of peace and integration for many decades, Europe is now facing unprecedented domestic and geopolitical challenges. Europe Programme, by carrying out local and macro analysis of key issues and trends from a humanitarian, security, economic, political, geopolitical, and defence perspective, seeks to support policymakers, NGOs, and industry players as they navigate the risks emerging within Europe and from its ambitions to remain relevant amid great geopolitical turmoil.

With Europe now a continent at war, our specialists and experts equally seek to provide up-to-date and accurate rolling analysis of the situation on the ground in Ukraine.
