Carleton University will host a workshop analyzing the European Union’s (EU) strategic partnerships and their future potential.

This workshop will investigate the EU’s notion of strategic partnership and assess whether it is a viable framework for pursuing the role of a global actor. The workshop will also investigate the state of Canada’s strategic partnership with the EU and place it in context.

When: Monday, April 13, 2015 from 8:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m.
Where: Second floor conference rooms (2200-2208), River Building
Cost: Free
Registration (required) and agenda: http://carleton.ca/ces/cu-events/workshop-strategic-partnership-instrument-eu-foreign-policy/#registration

The EU has used the term strategic partnership to frame its relations with many countries.  As it continues to deepen its partnerships with Canada, South Korea and the United States through trade agreements, other strategic partnerships, such as the one with Russia, seem under threat.
