In the course of the programme, 650 students from 13 BiH universities will take part in this programme which includes educational visits to the Office of the EUSR/EU Delegation to BiH and a final debate competition for all participating universities. The programme concludes with a 2-day study visit to Brussels for 4 students from the 2 winning universities in the debate competition and 1 student representative from each of the remaining 11 universities.
University of Bihac students were the first visitors to EUSR/EUD in Sarajevo on May 12; 53 students and teaching staff representatives held a two hour discussion with Deputy Head of Delegation Dr Renzo Daviddi.
Dr Daviddi said:
“Our discussion covered a lot of ground, from the EU integration process itself to educational opportunities offered through the ERASMUS+ programme. It’s always a pleasure to hear young people’s views about their future and the future of the country – they are very perceptive and get straight to the point! We are looking forward to welcoming students from all over BiH.”
The ’EU and YOU’ programme will continue with the next visits coming from the Medical faculty of Foča, Arts Academy Siroki Brijeg and University ‘Dzemal Bijedic’ Mostar. The programme is implemented by the Association Vesta from Tuzla.
