Between 2018 and 2021, EU-LISTCO investigated the challenges posed to European foreign policy by identifying risks connected to areas of limited statehood and contested orders.
After the project finished its workstreams in July 2021, the work is being continued in different formats. We encourage you to stay up-to-date with similar research programmes in which EU-LISTCO partners are involved.
