On Wednesday 1 April, the European Political and Governance Studies Department of the College of Europe, together with The Lisbon Council and Accenture, hosted the jury meeting of the European Centre for Government Transformation (ECGT) project online. This project is one of the many challenging and professionalising extracurricular activities organised by the Political Department giving students first-hand experience working in different policy areas as young professionals.
During the jury meeting, students had the chance to present their cases in front of a jury composed of high level practitioners and leading academics including Ms Gertrud INGESTAD, Director General, Human Resources and Security at the European Commission, and Olivier COSTA, Director of Studies of the Political and Governance Department. The online jury meeting is another example of the digital reconversion at the college in these challenging times.
We congratulate the 3 participating and highly motivated teams for their hard work and excellent presentations. The team members are:
TEAM SPAIN: Tim CARON, Chiara PETTINELLI, Judith NAYBERG, Pablo VILLATORO HARILLO
TEAM NETHERLANDS: Alexander CONWAY, Xhoana SHEHU, Karen AGHABEKYAN, Essi ERVASTI
TEAM FINLAND: Clementine AGOSTA, Ryan BAIN, Oriane GILLOZ, Josef SEVCIK
