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. Applications starting soon!
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. Follow us to find out about our upcoming activities!

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 initiative
Founded by graduate students of the Hertie School, futurEU is a student-led initiative seeking to join and contribute to the debate on shaping the EU of tomorrow. By uniting the in-depth of academia, the expertise of professionals, and the brightness of the student community, futurEU strives to promote an innovative approach in the stride to learn and constructively discuss on the way toward a more transparent, legitimate, inclusive, and ultimately better Europe.
Message from Commissioner Mariya Gabriel:
As students of the CIVICA Alliance - the European University of Social Sciences – you are in a unique position to shape Europe’s future.
This is why I strongly encourage you to take part in the futurEU Competition, a fantastic student-led initiative aimed at contributing to the debate on shaping the EU of tomorrow. This is a great opportunity to make your views heard and share what really matters to you.
Our supporters
futurEU is financed by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) with funding from the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
