#EUinMyRegion Media Trips, a study programme open for local and regional journalists and content creators from the European Union. This is a great piece to be shared with the journalists you are in contact with. The journalists completing the programme will have a better understanding of EU policies and in particular of Cohesion Policy and connect with fellow journalists from other EU countries and regions. The programme will include an online training (2 hours) one day before the beginning of the study trip. The study trip to Brussels will last two days and include sessions about EU institutions, structure and procedures; EU Cohesion Policy; how the EU handles fraud and mismanagement with funds; meetings with Commission country experts; data tools for journalists and project visits or visits of other EU institutions. Around 40 journalists from all the EU Member States are expected to join each study trip. The Commission will cover travel and accommodation costs for the journalists participating in the programme.

How can we make an opportunity for learning mobility a reality for everyone?

/in
This is the question the new citizens panel is invited to answer. The European Commission is asking 150 randomly selected citizens from the 27 Member States for help in making learning mobility in the EU more accessible to any learner, educator or trainer. Although transnational learning activities have proven to be highly valuable experiences for people, too few citizens actually benefit from them due to multiple constraints.
Citizens’ recommendations coming out the deliberations will support the upcoming Commission’s initiative on the identification of all obstacles to learning mobility and measures to be undertaken at different levels to overcome them. The citizens panel is part of a broader consultation strategy, which aims at gathering opinions and proposals of all interested parties and stakeholders in the framework of the public consultation currently underway until 3 May 2023.
The launching session of the panel is taking place from Friday 3 to Sunday 5 March in Brussels. The plenary debates will be web streamed on Friday afternoon and Sunday morning. Find out more: https://citizens.ec.europa.eu/index_en
