Presentation
To present the background, main moments and achievements of integration in Europe, in the economic, social, political and institutional aspects with a view to acquiring an awareness of European citizenship.
The European Union "is not a territory, but a common conscience".
It also promotes the acquisition of knowledge about the functioning of the Institutions of the European Union, such as obtaining more information about the other Member States, thus contributing to greater mobility in terms of the acquisition of qualifications and competences, and also for a more efficient European Union labor market.
