GEM-STONES is an acronym for "Globalisation, Europe and Multilateralism – Sophistication of the Transnational Order, Networks and European Strategies". GEM-STONES’s overall objective is to assess how the European Union contributes towards the purposeful management of regime complexes in response to the increased number of institutions, and an ever-greater sophistication of the international system. To this effect, GEM-STONES will investigate the EU's capacity to: (1) project its political choices through international institutions; (2) ensure public policy consistency via existing institutional networks; (3) collaborate in a targeted manner with other regional institutions; and (4) frame rational behaviours within international institutions.

This European Joint Doctorate Program is coordinated by the ULB's Institut d’Etudes Européennes (IEE-ULB). The 14-partner consortium will employ 15 PhD students.
