Report Launch: Global Perspectives on Responsible Economic Statecraft

In May 2024, we convened over 30 global experts to discuss Global Perspectives on Responsible Economic Statecraft. Now, we are launching our report, which draws on insights from this knowledge exchange lab and offers a framework for the responsible use of tools at the intersection of economic, foreign, and security policy. How can we maintain the benefits of interdependence while safeguarding against its risks? What does a proactive and collaborative approach to statecraft involve? And how can we mitigate adverse effects? Join us online or at our Berlin office to explore these questions and share your perspectives.
