Awareness-raising at the Student Fair
European Year 2015
The preparations for the European Year for Development started in June, with the first coordination meeting at the national level in mid-May and at the European level. The Directorate submitted a national work programme to the European Commission at the end of August in order to obtain co-financing for the activities. At the national level, a coordination group was set up to prepare and implement the programme. The group is made up of: Mr Ben Fayot, Special Ambassador of the European Year for Development, the Cercle of NGOs, the Representation of the European Commission and European Parliament in Luxembourg, the CGJL and LuxDev.
In preparation for the European Year for Development, Luxembourg’s development cooperation went to the Student Fair to explain to young people the work opportunities in the sector. A brochure – “Je m’engage” – was specially produced for the occasion.
