After,
AEGEE-Delft in 2014, AEGEE-Paris in 2015, AEGEE Cluj-Napoca in 2016, AEGEE-Budapest in 2017…
the winning antenna of the AAFB’s prestigious Franck Biancheri Award* in 2018 is …
AEGEE-Salerno !!!!
For this 2018 edition, the open call for applications launched to all AEGEE antennae resulted in a variety of highly interesting proposals that led to interesting discussions among the members of the Selection Committee.
AEGEE-Salerno, winner of the “Franck Biancheri Award” in 2018, will dedicate the award to the shaping of a big 3 days event in spring 2018 in partnership with the Civic Education Working Group and the AAFB, on the following inspiring topic : “Are we up to make Europe stronger for the future?“, with a view to reflect on the future of European Union elections and democracy after Brexit… an irresistible topic considering Franck Biancheri’s life-long fight for trans-European elections and parties and the upcoming 2019 European election.
AEGEE-Salerno considers that the questions concerning the future of Europe cannot be only left to politicians but also needs to be discussed by citizens, young ones in particular, because it’s them who will live with the next European system. Their voices should therefore be heard when deciding on important changes and they should have the possibility to influence current politics and systematic changes. So, in the future they can tell their children that they shaped modern European history. (Complete programme, topics and speakers to come soon.)
