[-] European Data Governance: Public and Private Law Challenges
Chairs: Carmen Tamara Ungureanu, Carmen Moldovan (Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iasi, Romania);
The aim of this special panel is to explore the intricate interplay between legal frameworks and data management practices,
focusing on the European Union's regulatory environment. On the public law dimension, issues such as jurisdictional
complexities, regulatory compliance burdens, cross-border data transfers, and data localization requirements pose significant
hurdles. Meanwhile, private law challenges encompass contractual arrangements, delineation of liability and accountability,
data disputes, and safeguarding intellectual property rights. [read more]

EURINT 2025 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
Building tomorrow’s Europe: Strategies for growth, inclusivity, and resilience
15-18 May 2025│ Iasi, Romania
The European Union stands at a critical juncture, one defined by complex political, economic, and social dynamics.
Recent years have witnessed the resurgence of populism, fueled by widespread economic inequalities and perceived
exclusions. These challenges underscore the urgent need to align strategies for growth with the principles of inclusivity
and tackling the inequalities. A failure to address these issues risks exacerbating societal divisions and undermining the
democratic fabric of Europe. Moreover, the focus on resilience, once a cornerstone of the EU’s post-crisis recovery
strategies, has diminished. This is particularly concerning given the accelerating pace of global shocks, from economic
volatility to climate emergencies. Building resilience is no longer optional but essential to ensure a robust and adaptive
Europe capable of navigating an uncertain future.
To confront these pressing issues, the EURINT conference Building tomorrow’s Europe: Strategies for growth, inclusivity,
and resilience which will be held in Iasi on the 15th and 16th of May 2025 aims to foster a multidisciplinary dialogue on
how to shape a Europe that is both economically vibrant and socially cohesive, while being prepared for challenges.
The conference will explore three interconnected themes:
Merging growth and societal needs in the 21st century - The European growth model must evolve to meet contemporary
societal demands. This calls for fostering innovation and competitiveness while ensuring that economic policies reflect
the broader needs of society, such as sustainable development and equitable access to resources.
Incorporating inclusivity and addressing inequality in policymaking - The widening gap between different social and
territorial groups requires immediate attention. Policymakers must prioritize inclusivity and start designing frameworks
that reduce inequalities, enhance social mobility, and empower marginalized communities.
Building territorial resilience: Resilience is fundamental to safeguarding Europe’s future. The conference will address
strategies for enhancing the adaptive capacities of regions and communities, focusing on sustainable urban planning,
climate adaptation, and economic diversification to mitigate the impacts of future crises.
Beyond these core themes, the conference invites discussions on a broader range of topics, including, but not limited to:
•
the implications of the new political context;
•
the transformative impacts of digitalization, both socially and territorially;
•
theoretical and empirical studies on well-being;
•
catching up with left-behind places;
•
data governance challenges.
This conference is an invitation to policymakers, academics, practitioners, and civil society to collaboratively envision a
Europe capable of rising to the challenges of the 21st century.
