BSt Europe 

Our Mission:

Europe is facing major challenges – from security threats and geopolitical rivalry to economic stagnation and the climate crisis. Many of these developments are deeply interconnected, making political decision-making increasingly complex.

As the Europe team at Bertelsmann Stiftung, we aim to strengthen Europe’s capacity to act – by providing evidence-based, practical recommendations and fostering dialogue with decision-makers and civil society. Our mission is a Europe that guarantees prosperity and social inclusion for all and that provides both security and resilience.

Our focus areas:

Europe’s Economy: How can Europe’s economy become more competitive, climate-neutral, resilient and inclusive?

Europe’s role in the world: How can Europe strengthen its sovereignty and resilience in an era of global uncertainty and growing competition?
