On June 23, a European Union country will, for the first time, hold a referendum on whether to stay in or leave the bloc. If the UK votes to leave, this will likely have long-lasting consequences both domestically and in the other 27 EU members. What do people throughout the EU think about the UK's renegotiation process? What are the implications of the referendum for direct democracy in Europe? Join us as researchers from the University of Edinburgh and the German think tank d|part present new work on attitudes towards the referendum in the UK and six other EU member states.

Global Europe Program
The Global Europe Program is focused on Europe’s capabilities, and how it engages on critical global issues. We investigate European approaches to critical global issues. We examine Europe’s relations with Russia and Eurasia, China and the Indo-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. Our initiatives include “Ukraine in Europe” – an examination of what it will take to make Ukraine’s European future a reality. But we also examine the role of NATO, the European Union and the OSCE, Europe’s energy security, transatlantic trade disputes, and challenges to democracy. The Global Europe Program’s staff, scholars-in-residence, and Global Fellows participate in seminars, policy study groups, and international conferences to provide analytical recommendations to policy makers and the media.
