Next Friday, October 25, at 11:00 AM, the Conference Room at Palazzo Soragna in Parma will host a significant event aimed at exploring the future prospects of the European Union: a lectio magistralis delivered by Enrico Letta, President of the Jacques Delors Institute. The meeting, aimed at students of the European College, will focus on the central theme “The Future of the European Single Market: Much More than a Market.”

The European Single Market, one of the fundamental pillars of European integration, allows for the free movement of goods, services, people, and capital among member states. However, in a rapidly changing global context, economic, social, and environmental challenges raise questions about the future of this instrument.

The choice of Enrico Letta as the speaker is no coincidence: his deep commitment to European integration and his political and academic experience make him a privileged observer of the dynamics influencing the Single Market. His talk promises to be an important opportunity for critical reflection and dialogue on how the Single Market can evolve to meet contemporary challenges.

At a time when global uncertainties are on the rise, the contributions of thinkers like Letta are crucial for guiding collective reflection on a project of integration that remains vital for the stability and prosperity of the continent.

All students and participants will have the opportunity to engage with a topic of extraordinary relevance, contributing to shaping an inclusive and sustainable European future.

The Advanced European Studies master programme (DAES) was officially opened on 14 october 2024, with speeches by Cesare Azzali (President of the European College), Alfredo De Feo (Scientific Director) and Marco Ziliotti (Administrative Director).

The atmosphere was charged with enthusiasm for the start of this new academic journey. New students from diverse backgrounds have embarked on a transformative journey in the field of European Affairs.

The DAES programme is renowned for its rigorous curriculum and high-level faculty, providing students with tools and knowledge to excel in this dynamic sector.

Throughout the academic year, students will participate in a variety of courses, workshops and seminars designed to deepen their understanding of EU institutions and policies, as well as of the multiple challenges which EU is now called to face. Specific emphasis is given to practical experience : students are encouraged to carry out internships and to engage in collaborative projects with various organizations and bodies.

In addition to academic commitments, the DAES community has always offered a vibrant social environment, fostering connections that extend beyond the classroom. Networking events and conferences will further enrich the experience, allowing students to interact with leading experts and practitioners.

By welcoming this new cohort, the European College of Parma Foundation expresses its pledge to continue supporting the academic and professional growth of recent graduates. And it certainly does not mean to stop there.

This hybrid event, co-organised by the Historical Archives of the European Union with the European Parliament Former Members Association (FMA), brings together politicians, academics and practitioners to discuss the current political scenario in Brussels in the light of historical trends.

Among the speakers, our Scientific Director, Alfredo De Feo, and two of our professors, Dieter Schlenker and Francis Jacobs.
