European governance
Explore architectural issues facing the European Union that will fuel the policy debate for the coming years.
COVID-19 will continue to affect all aspects of our lives and by extension the economy. This resulted in a continuation of major policy measures both at EU and member-state levels to manage the health and economic crises.
At European level, the Next Generation EU programme has radically changed the way the EU finances itself, interacts with financial markets and supports national recoveries. In late April, countries began submitting their Recovery and Resilience Plans. Bruegel scholars monitor the national plans as they were submitted, providing a comprehensive dataset and a series of analyses throughout the year.
