An illustration of the Charles Bridge in Prague with a text that reads: "The Charles Bridge in Prague revolutionised the relationship between East and West, unlocking prosperity through connection and collaboration. Be the architect of a stronger Europe. Europe's economic strength is built on opening doors, not closing them. A prosperous Europe needs trusted global partnerships."

Europe thrives when it opens doors, not closes them. The Charles Bridge once connected distant economies, just like smart EU investments today. A prosperous Europe needs global partnerships, especially in Africa.

Europe’s greatest landmarks started as bold ideas.

Now it’s our turn. As EU leaders draft the next #EUbudget, they face a choice: build bridges with global partners or retreat.

The MFF Hub is launching a campaign to invest in shared futures.
