Seminar - The European Parliament and the 2024 European Elections

The seminar ‘The European Parliament and the 2024 European Elections: Challenges and Answers’ will take place on 29 May at 2.30pm in the Salão Nobre of the Fernando Pessoa University.

Another election to the European Parliament will be held on 9 June. As part of the project ‘The Future of Europe’, CEPESE and the Fernando Pessoa University are organising this seminar, so that we can reflect on the current state of European integration and the challenges it faces. At the Fernando Pessoa University there is a long tradition of European Studies, academically specialised, but also dedicated to wide dissemination, both within and outside the university.

Admission is free.
