In the last episode of the year, our Beyond the Byline podcast revisits some of the stories that caught our attention in  2021.

From the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic that has changed our lives over the past two years to the new climate goals and legislation by the European Commission, the international tax regime, and the pushbacks against migrants in the Aegean, 2021 was an eventful year.

To wrap up what has happened in these 12 months, I spoke with EURACTIV’s reporters Giedre Peseckyte, Oliver Noyan, Kira Taylor, Janos Aman, and Mathew Tsimitakis.
