REPORT OF OUR PROJECT

First of all we want to mention our motivation since the start of the Project till the end.

In our blog you will be able to find several topics that we have written about the European Union in order to spread their values and their functioning. We have done polls to the students of our school and a lecture due to our aim to share the knowledge that we have acquired.

We have posted lots of videos and photos to show all we have done, so all the people have been able to see and check it. Our best initiatives have been recording an “acrosport” staging, in which we have represented the union between the different Member States of the EU, and a montage carried out thanks to the cooperation of some students. Moreover, we had a chat with Lleida’s Mayor, a digital newspaper published an article about what we have been doing and we have added a section, in which a countdown is included, specialised in The European Parliament Elections that are going to take place in May 2014.

Finally the most important part has been written: the proposals. They are based on the information that we have collected and our objective to unify and improve the European society.

Last but not least we want to remark that it has been a really nice experience which has given us a wealth of knowledge about the European Union. We are sure that we will benefit from it.



IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!

Interview to a MEP


We tried to interview some of the Spanish candidates to the European Parliament. Although none of them have answered yet, we want to share the questions we asked them with you.


Excellency Gentleman,

We are students from the school FEDAC-LLEIDA in the city of Lleida, Catalonia, coursing first of Bachillerato. We are writing to you because of our participation in the contest called “Euroscola” which promotes the knowledge and the circulation of the values of the European Union as well as the elections that will take place next May.

It would be a great contribution to our project if you could answer to some questions in order to help us understand the way a MEP thinks and acts.

The questions are attached below. We hope that you kindly answer them. Even though we understand that our petition can be refused, we want to thank you in advanced for your time.

A cordial greeting,
European Students.


  • What does the figure of a MEP represents to the society?
  • What does your daily routine in the European Parliament consist of?
  • Do you believe that the initial essence of the EU remains with the same intensity nowadays?
  • Do you think that the corruption supposes a wearing out of the figure of the politician and the institutions of Government?
  • The last results of the report PISA indicate that Spanish students fail in resolution of problems with 10 points less than the previous year. Do you believe that there is a possibility of a unification of the European Educational System to assure better results and a better preparation of the European young people?
  • Nowadays "The Europe of the regions" is a term which is highly used. The fundamental values of the European Union are based in solidarity between citizens. What does the increasing of independence movements in Catalonia, Scotland or Flanders mean for the stability of the EU?
  • What would you say, as a MEP, to the Spanish young people that must travel to the rest of Europe looking for work or opportunities that are difficult to obtain here?
