Enacting European citizenship - Citizens' dialogue with MEPs

Thursday, 19 September 2013, 13:30 - 18:00

Berrill Lecture Theatre, The Open University Milton Keynes

A great opportunity to meet MEPs and discuss Europe and European citizenship.

NCVO along with CSV and The Open University (and in particular the Oecumene research project) in partnership with the European Parliament are running a project 'Europe: what does it mean for you?'.

As part of this initiative, we are pleased to invite you to a dialogue with MEPs and a book launch with professors and civil society organisations to discuss citizenship rights within the EU. The event is organised as part of the European Year of Citizens 2013.

Do you have strong views on what it means to be a citizen in Europe today? Do you want to know how people across Europe engage with their European citizenship rights? Would you like to hear about local challenges and access to transparent information? Come and share your experience. This is a great opportunity to meet MEPs face to face and ask your question at live interviews.

Among the speakers are:

  • Keith Taylor, Green MEP for SE England
  • Prof Engin Isin (The Open University, co-editor of ‘Enacting European Citizenship’)
  • Prof Michael Saward (University of Warwick, co-editor of ‘Enacting European Citizenship’)
