Calendar
Avec SAIES, la Délégation Specque de l’ULB, Ecolo J ULB et CEE&T on a organisé la conférence “Si tu pollues, tu payes” le 24 avril 2018. Nos intervenants Nicolas de Sadeeler, Charlotte Billingham et Daniel Tanuro nous ont informé sur le droit environnemental de l’UE en rapport avec la pollution.
What? A first-year warm up of a European Democracy festival.
Democracy and conversation festivals are embedded in the Nordic and Baltic countries’ DNA, where some of them have been growing for over 50 years. Every year citizens, civil society organisations, public institutions and also politicians come together for a democratic experience with dozens of events, happenings, debates, forums, cultural activities and games organized. These are places where all sorts of topics can be addressed in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
The goal of Jubel is to create a similar emulation in the capital of Belgium with regards to European issues, in a broad sense.
When & where: September 22th 2018, 09:00-23:00
Leopold Park

MORE INFORMATION:
Divided into a workshop part in the morning and afternoon and a panel discussion in the late afternoon, this interactive event aims to engage dialogue with young people on Political Campaigning in order to encourage them to get involved in politics as statistics show that our youth is generally unrepresented but at the same time the most affected in our society.
We want to familiarize youth with the challenges and hot topics of the 2019 EU elections and we aim to show ways how the next generation can engage in this process. Hence, we want to pay special attention to topics, such as the special challenges and opportunities of the digital era in electoral Campaigning, the myth of “fake news”, how to make political communication more “bottom-up” through youth engagement etc.
Les élections locales du 14 octobre 2018 ont révélé une incontestable montée des Verts et du PTB en Belgique. Les deux partis se révèlent être les deux grands vainqueurs du scrutin, ce qui amène également à une réelle remise en question des partis traditionnels. Un phénomène similaire a pu être observé en Allemagne, au Luxembourg, ou encore en France lors des dernières élections, conjointement à la très remarquée percée des partis nationalistes dans de nombreux pays de l’Union européenne.
Se pose alors la question de savoir si cette même tendance pourrait être observée lors des prochaines élections européennes.
Eyes on Europe en partenariat avec le Comac ULB, organisent une conférence-débat afin de répondre à cette problématique.
A cette fin nous avons invité, Quentin Ariès, Caroline de Bock, Saskia Bricmont et Emilie Van Haute qui nous exposeront leur lecture des résultats des dernières élections et leurs pronostiques pour les élections européennes à venir.
Suivra un meet and drink afin d’approfondir les questions évoquées au cours de l’événement.
On vous attend nombreux!
