Paris: Dr. Maksym Glukhov Participates in PGA Meeting at the National Assembly, France’s Lower House of Parliament
Maksym Glukhov, our Director for Political Affairs, attended the international session of the Professional Government Association of Ukraine (PGA) in Paris on March 27, in cooperation with Euro Creative and with the support of the Konrad Adenauer Foundation (France). This significant gathering brought together government leaders, policy experts, and representatives from across Europe to collaborate on forward-looking strategies for France to strengthen its support for Ukraine in the field of security and European integration. The conference explored the opportunities and obstacles for increasing French military support to Ukraine for a more secure Europe and for supporting Ukraine’s integration into the EU, including through public administration reform.
The two-panel event brought together leaders from the French public sector, the expert community, the private sector and other organisations working closely with Ukraine.
The first panel focused on military support to Ukraine and geopolitical perspectives for Ukraine’s future, while the second panel was dedicated to supporting Ukraine’s reforms for European integration in the context of reconstruction, including strengthening the capacity of its public administration.
Maksym Glukhov’s participation underscores the Foundation’s commitment to strengthening international cooperation and advancing best practices in public administration. The event marked a key moment for fostering dialogue and building partnerships that shape the future of effective governance.
