We are a group of students from the Catholic University of
Louvain-la-Neuve (UCL) in Belgium. We form an organization named AUEL: Association Universitaire Européenne de Louvain. This
organization has the objective to act in order to participate in the
creation of a “European public space”, as it has been proposed by the
European Council. It is also a good and nice way to bring together
European citizens around this big project, which is our future, and
especially the future of the students. Our main project is the
organization of an European Week; a week where
students from different European universities are invited to debate
about the communities affairs, as well as to participate to various
activities aimed at promoting the cultural diversity and creating a
European identity.
This year, the European Week will take place from the 29th of March to the 4th of April 2009
on the campus of the Catholic University of Louvain-la-Neuve in
Belgium. Each of the preceding editions have brought together more than
hundred participants from all over Europe; from countries already in
the European Union but also countries that want to integrate Europe.
We invite you to follow a five-day marathon. The program consists of: a simulation of the European Parliament, debates, conference with deputies, visits of the European Institutions and of Brussels.
In order to make a real success out of this European Week, we need
the largest participation of students from all over Europe. That is why
you are all kindly invited to fill the application form in and to send
it to us before the 20th of January 2009 at the following email address: [email protected].
This event is a unique chance to discover how Europe works from inside,
to mix with and to call on the European Union agents, all of that in a
friendly atmosphere and an open-minded spirit.
