The European Political Community's ninth summit is scheduled for November 12 in Dublin. Ireland's Taoiseach Micheál Martin and European Council President António Costa are set to co-chair the meeting.

The programme groups discussions around European competitiveness and defending democratic institutions. It lists innovation, connectivity and affordable energy among the topics for leaders from across the continent.

The format brings EU and non-EU participants together for political dialogue. The Dublin meeting precedes an informal European Council gathering on November 13, where EU leaders will meet in a separate format.
