Comparing the status of Europe at that moment to today, we can only be happy with the progress that has been made so far. We can only gladly cheer “Happy Birthday Europe”. However, there is still a long way to go! […]

AEGEE-Nijmegen has entered this debate by organising EurPrivacy, a two-day conference on privacy in the digital era. […]

AEGEE was founded with the aim to unify young people in Europe in order to foster democracy, human rights, European dimension in education and to strive for creating an open and tolerant society. One of AEGEE’s major goals has always been the promotion of European Integration. With this goal in mind, in 1988 the Summer University Project (SU) was born. […]
