Explore how the executive branch of the European Union, tasked with upholding the law, often fails to provide adequate transparency in its actions and decisions.

The presentation covers relevant case studies across important policy areas including ChatControl, AI, and public procurement, providing valuable insights for anyone interested in EU governance, digital rights, and public accountability. Presented by Kris Shrishak, this 36-minute talk offers a critical analysis of institutional transparency challenges within one of Europe's most powerful governing bodies.
