Welcome to #EUIA25!

The ninth edition of the European Union in International Affairs (EUIA) Conference took place from 21 to 23 May 2025 in Brussels.

EUIA is a major forum for academics and policymakers to debate the role of the European Union in addressing global challenges. The ninth edition (#EUIA25) brought together over 300 participants from around the world to explore the theme Europe in a Fragmenting World.

Over three days, the conference featured academic panels, keynote speeches, and policy roundtables that addressed the EU’s role in a rapidly changing international landscape. Participants also engaged in networking sessions, awards ceremonies, and interactive events with leading academic journals in the field.

#EUIA25 is jointly organised by the Brussels School of Governance at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (BSoG-VUB), the United Nations University Institute on Comparative Regional Integration Studies (UNU-CRIS), the Institut d’études européennes at the Université libre de Bruxelles (IEE-ULB), Egmont – the Royal Institute for International Relations, and the Department of Politics and International Studies (PAIS) of the University of Warwick.

The next edition of the EUIA Conference will take place in 2027.
