EGPP hosted the EUI-YouGov annual conference in a hybrid format, aiming to examine the evolution of European, transnational solidarity.
The EUI-YouGov ‘Solidarity in Europe’ project started in 2018 and aims to examine the evolution of European, transnational solidarity. Since 2018, the project has been supported by a yearly survey, conceptualised by the EUI and administered by YouGov, which serves as input for scientific journal articles, policy briefs and media contributions.

🧩 The overall aim of this two half-day conference is to disseminate this rich, publicly available data, to foster academic research, publications and collaborations.
💿 The dataset:
The latest version of the dataset pertains to the fourth wave of the survey, fielded between March and April 2023. The questions cover a wide variety of topics: the concept of solidarity among EU states and beyond; response to different crises through various instruments; welfare and unemployment; taxes and basic income; satisfaction and trust towards governments, the EU and international actors; strength of national and European identities; value of democracy; importance and salience of various issues and threats; intention in a EU-membership referendum and other EU-related indicators including differentiated integration; world politics; left-right self-placement; gender, religion and age group; vote record in past national elections.
