futurEU Competition 2025
Now or Never: The EU is facing existential challenges. Join futurEU 2025 and compete with CIVICA students from all over Europe to develop the most innovative policies to move the EU forward. Apply today!
The competition
In 2020, futurEU launched the futurEU competition for its first edition ever, with the support of the Jacques Delors Centre Berlin, the Hertie School and CIVICA - the European University of Social Sciences. The competition on shaping the EU of tomorrow bridges the gap between young people’s voices and opinions on one hand and public discourse and academic research on the other. It is open to all students and PhD researchers of the CIVICA alliance.
The Club
In 2023, the futurEU Initiative joined forces with the Jacques Delors Centre to establish the futurEU Club, a platform with a distinct purpose. With the aim of fostering knowledge of the workings of the European Union and promoting debates on major news and developments, the Club will be a contact point for Hertie students interested in EU affairs.

This initiative is your chance to engage directly with key issues, share your perspective, and influence the conversation on the EU of tomorrow.
Take this opportunity to make your voice count and contribute to building a Europe that reflects your vision and priorities.
