Dear JEF’fers, federalists, Europeans and friends!

It’s that time of the year again! The Young European Federalists Belgium are inviting you for a barbecue. Catch up on European affairs, win a prize with our European tombola, get to know us a bit better or just drop by to have a nice drink and some food in the sun (hopefully).

These could be yours!
These could be yours!

The barbecue will be organised on the 6th of July in the garden of LOKO in the centre of Leuven. We will start our event with an activity for the (new) members of our local sections at 14h00. And don’t hesitate to come along if you’re planning to be active in a local section or if you want to share your experiences with us. From 16h00 on, we welcome all JEF’fers, federalists, Europeans and friends for a drink and a nice chat while the tremendous smell of the barbecue will make you hungry slowly. If you’re not able to join us for the barbecue but you would like to come along later that night, you’re also massively welcome of course.

The price for a full stomach is only 8 euro for JEF members and 11 euro for non-members. In order to secure your booking (and your food!), the best way to proceed is to pay in advance to the following bank account number stating your name (or names in case you pay for other people as well): IBAN – BE79 4352 0218 2133 & BIC – KREDBEBB

When: 6th of July, 16h00 – …

Where: Garden LOKO – ’s Meiersstraat 5, Leuven

Ventotene: Give Shape to Europe!

Ventotene
Ventotene, Italy – 1 to 6 September – Application deadline: 22nd June
The “Altiero Spinelli” Institute for Federalist Studies has been organizing an international seminar on the island of Ventotene since 30 years. This island off the Italian coast, was the place where Altiero Spinelli, author of the Federalist Ventotene Manifesto, was imprisoned during the Second World War.
As the European Union is facing a long economic crisis, radical and nationalists movements are emerging and dangerously evolving in all parts of the society. In some countries youth unemployment reaches over 50% of the total young population and the youngsters are criticising extremely hard their national governments as well as the EU decision makers.
2013, the European year of Citizenship, is witnessing an increasingly serious crisis of sense of belonging to the EU and to nations as economic crisis is worsening. European youth has today a real will to take active part in the “recovery” of the European Union and one of their proposal for a better EU is to promote European federalism.
This active role is exactly what the Ventotene seminar is for! It is undoubtedly a great place to be for those who want to play the most active role in the EU’s next step towards true federalism.
With 40 participants and 60 hours of training, debates and participation, you will be well equipped for the future to come!

Date: 1 – 6th September

Place: Ventotene, Italy

Cost: 70€ participation fee (full board, accommodation & 70% of travel costs up to 90€)
