Rationale:
The European Union is already more than 70 years old.
What benefits has your country gained from its participation in the European Union?
Has it improved as much as it should have, stagnated or gone backwards?
The students will present positions on the benefits they gain as young people and develop their critique of what bothers them and what they want the EU to do differently and better.
The event is part of the European programme “We Together”, which aims to increase citizens’ participation in European life and the upcoming European elections.
