The European electric vehicle (EV) industry is facing various challenges, in particular Chinese competition. In the first episode of our two-part series, we explored four potential scenarios for the European EV industry by 2030. If Europe is to steer its future to a positive outcome, it will have to use its existing policy instruments and build new ones.
Join us as we explore possible solutions the European Union could use to achieve the best potential scenario.

![Use of collaborative industrial robots in Europe [Science and Technology Podcast]
Robot applications, including collaborative robots – cobots – designed to collaborate with humans, are in high demand, with sales and installation figures constantly on the rise. However, it is necessary to analyse the risks and opportunities of this technology and its possible social, economic, and ethical impacts. The following study presents the current state of collaborative robotics, its benefits, and its disadvantages, with a special emphasis on key aspects such as safety. It presents possible policy options to enable the EU to remain at the forefront of this technology by taking advantage of the opportunities and avoiding the potential risks.

![Recognition of parenthood between EU countries [Policy Podcast]
Families in the European Union (EU) are increasingly likely to move and travel between the EU Member States. Yet, given the differences in Member States laws, parents can face difficulties in having their parenthood recognised when crossing borders within the EU. Non‑recognition in one Member State of parenthood established in another Member State can have significant adverse consequences for children and their parents who are moving to another Member State or returning to their Member State of origin.
