Crisis of Democracy? The Role of Political Parties in the Year of Global Elections 2024

A roundtable event on the importance of political parties and electoral developments for Global Europe (2024-2029)

Political parties play a vital role in consolidating democracy by acting as intermediaries between the public and government, organizing diverse viewpoints, and fostering policy debates. They ensure accountability through electoral competition and promote political participation. However, modern challenges like resource shortages and ideological rifts hinder their effectiveness, leading to the rise of new parties addressing contemporary issues. An upcoming roundtable, organized by the New EU Commission, brings global party representatives together to share experiences and strengthen democratic governance. Focusing on the 2024 elections, this event will promote collaboration, mutual learning, and international dialogue on democracy promotion.

Climate Club Formation: EU - India Steel Case Study

Lessons learned from the steel decarbonization workshop.

As an initial pilot to support the formation of the Climate Club, the GCA Collaborative, an independent global research initiative, conducted two workshops on decarbonizing the steel sector. These workshops engaged policymakers, associations, businesses, and sector analysts. Key outcomes: The SWGs must collaborate with a host of stakeholders, including businesses, governments, regulators, and civil society organizations, among others. Countries can focus on their sectors of choice -those where they can maximize emissions reductions, given their capabilities and commitments. Through these sectoral working groups, countries motivated to achieve climate neutrality in core sectors - such as steel, aluminum, cement, fertilizers, and automotive - can closely cooperate, including aligning decarbonization pathways. This paper summarizes the lessons learned from the steel decarbonization workshop, highlighting potential areas of cooperation between the steel sectors in India and the EU.
