- Strasbourg, 10.10.2013 - Fifth Debate: 'Georgia and the region's European aspirations: building the future on a vibrant past' with Victor Erofeev, Russian writer, author of Encyclopedia of the Russian soul.
The remains found in Dmanisi, Georgia represent the oldest evidence of humans discovered outside of Africa, dating back 1.8 million years. This discovery in 1991 rewrites human history and transforms our view of human evolution and our understanding of the first Europeans' way of life and societal organisation.
Professor Lordkipanidze introduced the fifth Debate with a presentation on Europe's common heritage, explore how Europeans have evolved since that time, and reflect on what we can learn from our common past to help us preserve Europe's unity. He refered to the history and the future of the Caucasus region and the perspectives for its European aspirations.

- Strasbourg, 18.11.2013 - Sixth Debate on European Identity with Daniel COHN-BENDIT
'Quo vadis Europa...?'
In a recent article Daniel Cohn-Bendit argued that "the time is ripe for a transnational, trans-generational, trans-partisan, grass-roots and crowd-funded movement to take European integration to the next level".
He suggests that Europe has a role to play as one of the global leaders, but to achieve this Europe needs a paradigm shift based on the abandonment of national sovereignty and a move away from state-nation structures.
Is Europe ready to undertake these kinds of reforms and do European institutions have enough legitimacy to do so? What are the limits of European integration and what responsibilities would national states have in a transnational Europe? Could European identity one day substitute national patriotism?
