We are happy to announce that CEP established Trivelis Institute.

Trivelis, the Institute for Defense, Security, and Resilience, will function as an independent research center dedicated to strategic reflection on contemporary security challenges at the intersection of defense, security, and societal resilience. It will serve as a platform for in-depth analysis, interdisciplinary cooperation, and strategic communication, with the aim of strengthening the security preparedness of institutions, organizations, and society in Slovenia.

The Institute will bring together the knowledge and experience of experts from academia, state institutions, the public and private sectors, and civil society, acting as a link between key stakeholders at both national and international levels.

In line with its mission, the Trivelis Institute will support the strategic strengthening of Slovenia’s security and resilience through independent, professional, and analytical expertise.

The Institute will produce analyses and publications and organise public debates, conferences, and communication activities to enhance understanding of a comprehensive approach to security, defence, and societal resilience. Through research, expert analysis, and policy recommendations, it will support the development of national, European, and Euro-Atlantic security policies in cooperation with public institutions, academia, media, civil society organisations, and other key stakeholders. Through advisory work, publications, and participation in international projects, it will systematically promote Slovenian knowledge, experience, and best practices in defence, security, and resilience at the international level.

At CEP pre-holiday discussion that took place on 15. 12. 2025 under the title“2026: What’s Coming — and How to Make the Best of It?”, we looked at what 2026 might bring, the challenges ahead, and the opportunities to shape a better future.

In a wide-ranging discussion, speakers warned of an increasingly deteriorating international security environment, Russia’s role in reshaping Europe’s strategic reality, and a transatlantic relationship that is fundamentally changing. As global politics become more transactional, Europe faces profound challenges — from security and societal cohesion to technological change and strategic autonomy.

But at the same time, this moment could become a turning point for Europe to adapt, evolve, and redefine itself for the better. To go through a ‘European Renaissance’.

While the outlook for 2026 points to continued volatility, uncertainty, and serious challenges, one source of optimism remained clear: for now, many of the key decisions are still in the hands of people. If we choose to act and make the effort, we can create a better future.

Speakers:

🔹 Sabina R. Stadler, Head of the Department for Strategic Studies and Analyses at the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs

🔹 Dr Dejan Verčič, Professor and Head of Centre for Marketing and Public Relations at the Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Ljubljana

🔹 Vojko Volk, State Secretary for National and International Security at Office of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Slovenia
