On June 27, 2017, the European Parliament, under the patronage of his President Antonio Tajani, convened a dialogue with representatives of Jewish, Muslim, and Christian communities on the future of Europe under the general theme: The Future of Europe – Reflections for the European Union by 2025. The high-level dialogue was inspired in part by recent European Parliament resolutions on improving its various treaties and on the 2017 European Commission White Paper on the future of Europe.

Churches are equally invested in these conversations, notably through the COMECE’s upcoming Vatican gathering “(Re)thinking Europe” and Conference of European Churches’ (CEC) Open Letter and consultation “What Future for Europe?”.
