international organisation set up in 1972;

The
Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies (RSCAS) is an inter-disciplinary research centre at the

heart of the European University Institute (EUI). It was established in 1992 to complement the four EUI

disciplinary departments (Economics, History and Civilization, Law, Political and Social Sciences) with the aim

to be involved in both basic and policy research, collaborate with other centres of excellence in Europe,

provide opportunities for young scholars and promote dialogue with the world of practice. The Centre's goal is

to maintain an environment and support structure that fosters intellectual curiosity and excellent research. The

research agenda of the Centre is currently guided by three major themes: Integration, Governance and

Democracy; Regulating Markets and Governing Money; and 21st Century World Politics and Europe.

The
Florence School of Regulation Climate (FSR Climate) aims to provide a reliable source of information,

analysis, and evaluation of EU climate policies ex-post and a forum for discussion for research carried out in

the area. Its main research interests are the EU Emissions Trading System, the renewable energy promotion,

the distributional impact of climate policy, energy efficiency policies and environmental and energy taxation. Its

events (workshops, conferences, online events, and others) and training courses (both residential and online)

involve researchers and the policy and business communities for the purposes of developing and discussing

research that evaluates EU climate policies.
