$The Florence Report: An agenda for Europe The Peterson Institute for International Economics and the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) host a discussion of The Florence Report: Reconfiguring Europe in a fractured global economy. As Europe confronts slowing growth, competitiveness pressures, geopolitical fragmentation, demographic change, and renewed demands on public institutions, the Florence Report outlines the needed move towards a more integrated and cohesive approach to economic policy. This event explores the path toward a new European social contract, one centered on renewed economic strategy, resilience, solidarity, and sustainable growth. The discussion features leading experts on the European Unions political economy from both the United States and Europe.
