Together with the Foundation for Polish Science, John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin, Institute of Political Studies of the Polish Academy of Sciences, and the Polish Society for European Studies we would like to invite you to the conference “From negotiation to integration. Polish experience of the accession process and the path to Ukraine’s membership in the European Union”.
➡️Date: March 25, 2024
➡️ Location: John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin
It will not only be a scientific event but also the culmination of the project “From discourse of ‘Europeanness’ to EU membership: integration narratives in Poland and Ukraine in comparative perspective. Merging theoretical and utilitarian approach”, financed by the Foundation for Polish Science.
It is important to keep in mind that quite soon we will be celebrating the 20th anniversary of Poland’s accession to the European Union. This historical event, that falls on May 1, 2024 is a symbol of the democratic transformation and integration with Europe.
However, we cannot forget about the hardship and the challenges, that Ukraine is facing right now, especially in the context of the continuing conflict with Russia. Our experiences with the integration process can be invaluable for Ukraine in the process of building her future in the European structures.
We would like to encourage you to take part in this conference as it will be a perfect opportunity to exchange experiences with theoreticians and those who participate in the process of European negotiations, representing Poland, Ukraine, and the EU institutions.
Please register your participation in the until March 22, 2024 at the latest, by notifying dr Michał Bednarczyk, secretary of the conference (michal.bednarczyk@kul.pl).
