Building upon the work of the EUNMUTE Centre of Excellence (Un-Muting Europe) completed in September 2025, EUMERGENCIES (Unity and Disunity in the EU’s Response to Emergencies) is dedicated to EU emergency management research. Coordinated by Denis Duez at the Institute for European Studies (UCLouvain Saint-Louis Bruxelles), the project investigates the political and constitutional implications of crises, questioning whether emergencies foster European solidarity or, conversely, undermine the EU’s constitutional foundations and political stability.
EUMERGENCIES Agenda
We host regular research seminars, conferences and public lectures. There are currently no scheduled events. Our next academic session will be announced shortly.
