Title: The origins of the Schengen Area - historical scrutiny
Author, co-author: Danescu, Elena; Goebbels, Robert
Abstract: The Schengen Area is one of the pillars of the European project. But it has been affected by several difficulties: the serious consequences of the global economic and financial crisis (2008-2018), growing concerns over external migratory pressure and the question of enlargement, fears of social dumping and, since March 2020, the COVID-19 crisis. Identifying these obstacles is vital so that pragmatic solutions can be found without jeopardising the founding principle.
Commentary: Programme Introduction – Elena Danescu, Coordinator of EDIC University of Luxembourg “Schengen…. 35 years ago” – Screening of a documentary film looking at the impact of the Schengen Agreement Address – Mr Robert Goebbels Debate with the audience Virtual tour of the Schengen Museum and the town of Schengen, by Martina Kneip, Director of the Museum Conclusions
