EU is facing crucial challenges. In the last years the economic crisis has stricken hard among European countries and a debate over the future of Euro is on-going. In this critical context with the European elections approaching, European citizens, should be aware of the importance of the EU, of its values and real opportunities and how it affects their everyday life.
On the contrary, there is a loss of memory of the pre-European Union period; a lack of awareness of the risks arising from a possible dissolution of the Union and poor knowledge of the EU institutions competences and functioning. [Two years to go to the 2014 European elections, European Parliament Eurobarometer (EB/EP 77.4)]
With this project, we will try to tackle some of these problems by giving citizens the opportunity to reflect on the reasons behind the European integration, by boosting their interaction about the European values and by proving them the knowledge to actively participate to the EU democratic process.
