The workshop will be held in collaboration with the Regional Parliament, Europe Direct and a Jean Monnet Chair at Valencia between June 17 and 21
More than fifty students and teachers from the different universities in the Forthem Alliance are going to met at the Faculty of Law of the University of Valencia to analyze the elections to the European Parliament and their political implications. The activity is part of the short-term mobility actions (Short Term Mobilities) promoted by Forthem and is going to be held entirely in English in morning and afternoon sessions.
The celebration of the Workhsop will be possible thanks to the collaboration of the General Directorate of Representation before the European Union of the Generalitat Valenciana, of the Jean Monnet chair 'Economic Services of General Interest in the framework of social and territorial cohesion' (SGEI-EU) of the University of Valencia and the presidency and protocol services of Les Corts Valencianes.
