Manu DORIS and Marko ČEPERKOVIĆ – students of the MA in European Political and Administrative Studies, Falcone – Borsellino Promotion (2014 /2015) – have been selected as “ambassadors” of the College of Europe to promote the writing competition ‘So similar, so different, so European’, organized by DG European Neighbourhood and Enlargement Negotiations (DG NEAR) in collaboration with ICF Mostra.
As ambassadors they disseminated information about the contest in France, Belgium, Poland, Croatia, Romania and other European countries through social media, blogs and portals. Subsequently, they visited ICF Mostra on Tuesday 24 March 2015. During this visit they had the opportunity to better understand how a communication agency works with the EU Institutions.
The competition aimed at promoting the debate on EU Enlargement among young people coming from the EU Member States. It invited people to reflect on their experience in living within an enlarged European Union and on the future challenges that the Union could face. The applications to the competition were closed at the end of February and the winners will participate in a study visit in Brussels in May.
