Play Video: Rising to the challenge: Europe’s path to growth and resilience

The sharply deteriorating global order is adding further complications to Europe’s already challenging economic situation. New tariffs come at a time when economies are grappling with structural transformations in demographics and energy, and amidst increasing security spending needs. Export markets are shrinking, uncertainty is undermining firms’ willingness to innovate, and public expenditure needs are rising. Without a turnaround in growth, Europe’s ability to deliver on its social welfare promises is in jeopardy. If European policymakers were to seize the moment, the region’s growth potential and resilience to shocks could rise substantially.

Play Video: E-fuel Might Change Flying & Cyber Careers Empower Women | WEF | Top Stories Week

This week's top stories of the week include: 0:15 This e-fuel might change flying — The ‘e’ in e-fuel stands for electricity. Unlike ordinary jet fuel, which is sourced from petroleum, the ingredients of e-fuel are water and pollution. Infinium’s fuel is an e-SAF or sustainable aviation fuel. SAFs are a great solution because they’re ‘drop-in’, which means they can go straight into existing planes without changing the fleet. 3:34 World needs more young farmers — Arnold Puech Pays d'Alissac is a family farmer from Normandy, France and the head of the World Farmers’ Organisation. As the world population rises, so does the need for farming. In the Future of Jobs Report 2025, ‘farmworker’ is the fastest growing role in the next 5 years with 35 million new vacancies set to be created by 2030. 3:34 This filter purifies water fast — The ROAMfilter Plus is cheap and portable. It can be set up in under a minute and filters up to 300 litres an hour. Unlike many filters, it uses no electricity so it can be deployed in places without power such as disaster zones or remote settlements. 5:16 Cyber careers empower women — For Confidence Staveley, a gap year after high school sparked a life-changing journey. It was the first time she encountered computers—and she was hooked. Although her parents had long envisioned a medical career for her, Staveley knew she belonged in tech. With only cardboard for her pitch, she convinced her parents to let her pursue cybersecurity. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.
