The Forum is a strategic foresight conference that brings together a select group of government officials and independent leaders to discuss Europe’s options in the context of the EU enlargement process.
Europe cannot afford another enlargement failure; such an outcome would weaken the continent, increase vulnerability, deplete resources, and render one of the EU’s most influential foreign policy tools ineffective for decades.
Thus, in 2024 the Forum explores critical policy options for the EU enlargement process ahead of expected pivotal moments, such as the Polish Presidency of the EU Council 2025.
It builds upon a network of trusted partnerships and expertise to inform the policymaking process and second options that improve Europe’s democratic security.

The Res Publica Foundation is an impartial think tank with over three decades of experience in forward-looking research, publishing, and project management relevant to Polish and European policies, particularly in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE).
Established in 1987, its founding aim was to bolster cultural, research, and educational capacities, focusing on European themes and subjects.
Res Publica’s mission is to fortify democracy in Central and Eastern Europe and to establish mechanisms to prevent democratic backsliding. It enriches public discourse through Res Publica Nowa, its flagship Polish publication, and Visegrad Insight, an English-language European think tank and platform for analysis, research and debate.
Visegrad Insight is the main Central European analysis and media platform. It generates future policy directions for Europe and transatlantic partners.
Over the past years, our strategic foresight programme has gained recognition for its approach and impact on European policy and public debate.
Annually, through Visegrad Insight and Res Publica Nowa, the foundation publishes approximately 300 analytical papers, articles, and reports, collaborating with over 200 authors and experts. Its publications are either republished or produced with leading national media outlets.
