After last year's succes, the MEU 2010 is planned to be an ever bigger event! The number of participants was raised to 180 and the roles, that the participants will be able to adopt during the simulation, will be those of an MEP, Comissioner, lobbyst, journalist or interpreter. The two topics of debate will be the law regarding genetically modified organisms and the Return Directive 2008, two very `hot' topics of debate, which will surely start difficut, but very interesting debates.
MEU is an extrodinary chance for any young person, because it gives them the opportunity to get to know in a non-fromal manner the democratic process which takes place in the European Institutions, teaching them at the same time the necessity of cooperating and compromising, as well as communicating with and accepting people with different cultures. It is surely an European event, which aims at informing and bringing closer citizens of EU member states. And the fact that the event takes place in the European Parliament makes everything more authentic!We are NOT looking for people of specific political views. We are just looking for people interested in what happens at the European level, who are opinionated and are eager and capable of taking part in this event, contributing at the same time in a positive manner.
