On the eve of Ireland assuming the Presidency of the Council of the European Union, please join us for a lunchtime discussion on how Europe can strengthen digital security, democratic resilience and public trust while fostering innovation and safeguarding shared democratic values.

In front of a gathering of representatives from Europe’s diplomatic community, Dr. Anna Koukkides-Procopiou, former Cypriot Minister for Justice and Public Order, and now Peace Fellow at Yale University, will deliver a keynote address on democratic resilience, security, and Europe’s digital future. This will be followed by a high-level panel discussion on these themes.

The occasion will also mark the launch of Trinity College Dublin’s new Centre for Digital Security and Societal Resilience, a major interdisciplinary initiative bringing together expertise across digital security, AI accountability, democratic resilience, law, policy, infrastructure and society. The Centre will provide a national platform for research-led solutions, public dialogue and European engagement on the issues shaping secure, trusted and resilient digital futures.

The event will also recognise the outstanding contribution of Ambassador Louis Telemachou, Cyprus’s Ambassador to Ireland, to mark the successful conclusion of Cyprus’s Presidency of the Council of the European Union.

This event is run in accordance with Trinity’s Dignity and Respect policy, and its commitment to nurturing a respectful and inclusive research culture.
