AEGEE-Kaiserslautern-Saarbrücken invites you to celebrate the 35th Birthday of the Schengen Agreement! 🤝

Join the online session to recognize the importance of this milestone and its contribution to European integration!🇪🇺

There will be speakers, such as:

🔹Christina Kneip, head of the Schengen Information Center

Lastly, there will be a debate regarding the Schengen Agreement, and what it values for the common future in Europe. To make the discussion as interactive as possible, the listeners can ask questions in the chat function. 🔊

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗘𝗚𝗘𝗘-𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 - 𝗜𝗳 𝗘𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝘁!

Missing Network Meetings? Feeling tired and need an energiser? Want to learn, but can’t attend a Regional Training Course? Want to see old friends again and meet new AEGEEans?

No worries, we got your back! We invented a game to bring the beautiful experiences that AEGEE has to offer together as an online game. You will start out as a contact-antenna with your team, but will grow out to become real Gunnars.

𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝗺𝗲

You sign up for the game individually and we will divide you into random teams. You will be divided into teams, which we will call ‘(contact-)antennas’.

𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗰𝘁-𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗻𝗮 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗮𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀:

🔹 You will start out as a contact-antenna, however you become an antenna by designing a flag, creating a team outfit, coming up with traditions for your ‘(contact-)antenna’ or anything else that will make your ‘(contact-)antenna’ feel like a real antenna.

🔹 Organise a small low key event, which will take up between 15-60 minutes. If you’d like to organise an event that will take up more time, you can discuss with your ‘NetCom’ (which we will announce later) whether this will be possible or not.

🔹 Another way to earn points is to go to events that others have organized. Your ‘(contact-)antenna’ will earn points for every event that has been visited by one of your members.

🔹 Members of your (contact-)antenna can find people of other (contact-)antennas with the same interests. If a team member creates/joins an ‘interest group’ in the game, the ‘(contact-)antenna’ will earn points.

🔹 You can earn points by becoming twin (contact-)antennas with another (contact-)antenna.

𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀.


𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴:

16 June: Deadline for signing up for the game

22 June: The ‘contact-antennas’ will be announced → getting to know each other and think of fun activities/ events to organize

24 June 12:00 (CET): Sign up the activities you are going to organise with your ‘(contact-)antenna’ Hand in your recipes for the European Night.

26 &27 June: Activities

26 June in the evening: European Night

28 June: Award Ceremony ‘Agora’ → winners will be announced

#POLICYPAPER
#ECWG
#SURVEY

Buongiorno o buonaseraaa!

📜 As policy officer of the European Citizenship Working Group, I have prepared a google form to collect useful data to draft my Policy Paper on "The impact of Youth Mobility Projects".

Mobility programs (including Erasmus+ student exchanges) are nowadays a consistent aspect of our lives as young citizens, even more for those residing in countries of the European Union.
This policy paper aims to remind us and to emphasize the incredible potential youth mobility programs are always putting on the table for those in search of life changing experiences, whether for a university exchange of few months, a Voluntary Service abroad during a gap year or a training to improve our key competences as youth workers and youth leaders.

I would like to ask you to take 5-10 minutes to fill the survey, your answers and your personal experience will be crucial to prepare a representative and actual analysis on this topic. You can find the survey here!👇
