On November 7, 2023 the China-Europe-America Think Tank Cooperation Forum will take place in Bologna to discuss the state of the world economy, and to analyse the relations between Europe and China in an evolving geopolitical environment.
Speakers coming from China, Europe and the US will gather at the Bologna Business School where they will interact with Romano Prodi, former Prime Minister of Italy, and former President of the European Commission.
David Gosset, the founder of the China-Europe-America Global Initiative, believes that in a world of multiple crises, one should not decouple but renew intellectual dialogue to solve the problems of our century.
In this context, think tanks need to reinforce cooperation, and act as catalysts for peace. When American industrialist and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919) created the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace in 1910, he asked of what was one of the first modern think tanks “to hasten the abolition of international war, the foulest blot upon our civilization”.
