9th May Europe Day Festival - Programme
https://www.facebook.com/events/252141478218573/
Dear friends No Visa Caravan was chosen as a succesful project by Ministry for EU Affairs. We invite you to join 9th May Europe Day's Festival.
What is Europe Day:
Europe Day is 9 May, commemorating the declaration by Robert Schuman in 1950 which is regarded as marking the creation of the European Union.
Probably very few people in Europe know that on 9 May 1950 the first move was made towards the creation of what is now known as the European Union.
In Paris that day, against the background of the threat of a Third World War engulfing the whole of Europe, the French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman read to the international press a declaration calling France, Germany and other European countries to pool together their coal and steel production as "the first concrete foundation of a European federation".
What he proposed was the creation of a supranational European Institution, charged with the management of the coal and steel industry, the very sector which was, at that time, the basis of all military power. The countries which he called upon had almost destroyed each other in a dreadful conflict which had left after it a sense of material and moral desolation.
Everything, therefore, began that day. That is why during the Milan Summit of EU leaders in 1985 it was decided to celebrate 9 May as "Europe Day".
Every country which democratically chooses to accede to the European Union endorses its fundamental values of peace and solidarity.
These values find expression through economic and social development embracing environmental and regional dimensions which are the guarantees of a decent standard of living for all citizens.
While Europe as such has existed for centuries, the elements which united it, in the absence of rules and institutions, have in the past been insufficient to prevent the most appalling tragedies.
The integration of Europe will not come about in one day or even in a few decades. Deficiencies are still numerous and there are evident imperfections. The project which was begun just after the Second World War is still very new. In the past, efforts at European union were based on domination of one group over another. These attempts could not last, because those who had been conquered had only one aspiration: to regain their freedom.
Today's ambition is completely different: to build a Europe which respects freedom and the identity of all of the people which compose it. Only by uniting its peoples can Europe control the mastery of its destiny and develop a positive role in the world.
The European Union is at the service of its citizens. While keeping their own specific values, customs and language, European citizens should feel at ease in the "European home".
"Youth and the Environment: "green" skills development"
Dates: 17 June 2012 – 24 June 2012 (8 days)
Project Summary:
The Hellenic Organization of Environment is co-organizing with the Turkish NGO System & Generation, at the city of Larisa, in Greece, a six-day event which will bring together 20 young people, aged 18-25, from Turkey and Greece. The basic objective of this joint endeavour will be to sensibilize youth regarding issues of environmental interest. The action entitled "Youth and the Environment: "green" skills development", will place particular focus on the development of "green" skills and behaviours among young people and on the ways in which they can become active citizens aware of environmental challenges. The event will include non-formal learning activities such as workshops, role plays, ice-brakers etc. as well as activities which will bring together the young people with the local community. Young people will thus have the opportunity to visit sites of environmental importance, to meet local producers and to discuss with representatives of the local authorities on the environmental challenges. The results of the event will be included in an educational package which will serve as a paradigm for other young people, youth organizations or relevant stakeholders who wish to encourage the development of a "green" consciousness among young people.

Making evaluations about the decision taken by the European Commission on defining the framework of the visa facilitation for Turkish citizens before the meeting on 26 April 2012, Minister for EU Affairs and Chief Negotiator Egemen Bagis said “It is the natural right of Turkish citizens to travel visa-free to European countries.”
In the statement he made to the members of the press in Istanbul, Minister Bagis said that they had not made concessions about the visa issue, and continued his words as follows:
