The European Parliament Ambassador School Programme (EPAS)

For the 20/21 school year in Veneto, the following secondary schools of second degree have joined the Europe Direct of the City of Venice to support in the area:

Istituto Tiziano-Galileo di Belluno (BL) - vedi dettaglio

Istituto Luzzatto di Portogruaro (VE) - vedi dettaglio

Istituto Einaudi-Scarpa di Montebelluna (TV) - vedi dettaglio

Licei Stefanini di Venezia (VE) 

The course aims to bring students closer to Europe and the European Parliament in particular, to make them aware of how it works, encourage interaction between students and Members of the European Parliament and provide useful information to young people on Europe’s training and work opportunities for young people. Relations with schools in other European countries are also fostered through the network of ambassador schools. 

Schools are required to organize an initiative to involve the school community and possibly citizenship around 9 May. On this occasion, the Members of the European Parliament in the constituency to which the school refers will participate in the ceremony of the plaque and will deliver the parchments for teachers and students as "European Parliament Ambassadors".

  Teachers and pupils actively follow all updates on the Twitter and Facebook pages of the European Parliament’s Information Office;
  Teachers encourage students to post news, blogs, photos, videos;
