The EUFutures Policy Development Labs are annual workshops involving Master’s students from the SPS Department’s Public Affairs curriculum. Drawing on the content of EUFutures teaching modules about the historical evolution of European economic strategies and the political and institutional forces that shaped them, students work with senior academics and policymakers to analyze current challenges facing the EU economy and develop forward-looking policy recommendations.
In the 2026 edition, students enrolled in Prof. Benassi’s and Prof. Tassinari’s modules “Political Economy of Labour Markets” and “Comparative Capitalisms in Europe” will be joined by guest lecturer Dr. Donato Di Carlo (LSE) for a policy development workshop focused on the policy implications of the digital and green transitions for Europe’s skills strategy.
The workshop will take place on 13 May 2026, from 13:00 to 15:00, in Room 7, Palazzo Hercolani (University of Bologna). The event is reserved for students enrolled in the aforementioned modules and is not open to the public.
