EU, Global South and New Global Value Chains
Comprehensive research programme exploring the pathways for the European Union to build a new fair green partnership with Global South
Bruegel’s New Global Value Chains project maps out and analyses potential new global supply chains and their feasibility in constructing a fair green partnership between Europe and the Global South in the context of the European Green Deal.
The research project seeks to develop informed policy recommendations for the new term of EU institutions following the June 2024 EU elections, and engage with other think tanks from the Global South.
