The event will address the main topic of ‘The Federalization of Europe’, as well as three sub-topics namely, European institutions and politics (e.g. taxation, voting rights, economic policies), a discussion on sovereignty/political autonomy, identity and culture (e.g. European anthem) and specific topics like the European army and constitution.

 

Not only will you be able to listen to what experts have to say, but you will be able to raise YOUR OWN questions and opinions on the discussed matters!
