European Public Policy Conference: Accelerating the acquisition of knowledge by empowering student leaders.

This fully student-run event is sponsored by the IPLI Foundation and organized by the students at the Hertie School in Berlin.

Thanks to a highly interactive format, EPPC provides a unparalleled opportunity for future policy makers to engage with prominent political leaders and experts to address the pressing challenges that Europe faces in the twenty-first century. Students are responsible for all aspects of the organization of this unique initiative. With each subsequent iteration of EPPC, student organizers select the conference theme, choose the speakers and select the country where EPPC is held.

The theme for the 2024 edition of EPPC is:

EU - Integration and Disintegration

Since the 2016 Brexit referendum, the EU has existed in a “crisis of confidence.” Yet despite a state of perma-crisis and the war in Ukraine, the EU has considered further expansion of its political frontiers and increased political integration. EPPC 2024 focuses on this integration-disintegration balance, emphasizing the need for open discussions and informed solutions in the face of major challenges to the European community.

The goal of EPPC 2024 is to organize a thought-provoking conference to spark new ways of thinking among participants who share a passion for international affairs and public policy.
