"The EU in slides" is a selection of PowerPoint slides outlining the basics of what the European Union is, what it does, and how it works. The slides are a flexible aid for teachers and speakers giving presentations about the EU. They are fully editable - anyone can re-use the illustrations, graphs, or templates. The slides cover many of the benefits of the EU, as well as the more traditional subjects of EU history, treaties and institutions.

Luxembourg is a country of fine diners, just like France, Belgium, Italy and other EU member states. No doubt the Commission Representation in the Grand Duchy had the old saying “The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach” in mind when they decided to produce a total of three publications dealing with food issues.

Brochures were handed out to the public, including young citizens, at an event in September organised by our colleague Julio Gonzalez Romero from the Representation in Dublin.
