The EU's long-term transition to environmental, social and economic sustainability
runs alongside several large-scale crises. Amidst the 'triple crisis' of climate

health (UNEP, 2020), we also face crises in the political, economic and social spheres,
including the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, the 'slowbalisation' of the global
economy and trade (European Parliament, 2020) and growing societal fragmentation
over values and identities.
