Join special guest MEP Damian Boeselager, founder and candidate of the VOLT Party for a Policy & Pizza session discussing the upcoming EU elections & youth participation in European affairs.
Do the current events and crises that dominate the headlines keep you up at night? Do you ever wish that someone would help you make sense of it all? Our experts here at the Hertie School are there for you, and they've even brought pizza.
Join guest speaker (and Hertie alumni) Damian Boeselager, current MEP, founder and candidate of the VOLT Party for a Policy & Pizza session discussing youth engagement in EU affairs and the upcoming EU elections. The event will be moderated by current PhD student Francesca Minetto, one of the founders of FuturEU, an initiative aimed at boosting student involvement in European affairs. As with our ‘Policy and Pizza’ sessions, this is an opportunity to engage directly with practitioners and leaders shaping the world of policy and international relations in a meaningful way. Bring your questions!
