KMOP is excited to invite you in an engaging event featuring elected Members of the European Parliament and political analysts organised by Stand Up for Europe in collaboration with JEF Belgium. The event will take place on 15 October, from 17.00 to 20.00, at STAM Europe, Rue d’Arlon 104, 1000 Brussels.
The goal of our post-election event is to discuss the future legislative priorities of the European Commission for the period 2024-2029 and get the young people’s perspectives on how the EU should move Forward.
We aim to facilitate discussions between experts, policymakers and civil society to understand youth perspectives on EU’s plans for the upcoming 5 years. By engaging in discussions with representatives of the European Commission and Members of the European Parliament, the participants will get the chance to have their say on topics that interest them such as youth engagement & education; environment & climate; security and defence; gender, inclusion, human rights and many others.
At the end of the event, the participants are invited to continue the discussions in an informal setting during the networking drinks (open bar)
Our distinguished speakers include:
- Michaela Di Bucci – Director at the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Research and Innovation, Head of the Internal Support and Communication Directorate
- Benedetta Scuderi – Member of the European Parliament, the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance
- Kalojan Hoffmeister – President of the Young European Federalists (JEF) Belgium
