The third Building Bridges workshop took place on 28-29 September 2015. This event included a discussion between experts involved in the project and Belgian citizens about the impact European integration had on Belgium and what citizens' expectations are for the future. In total 27 participants from nine EU countries (Slovakia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Romania, Hungary, Denmark, Estonia, Malta and Belgium) were involved. The following day, the experts reflected on the main topics discussed with the Belgian participants and presented the preliminary findings of their research on their national perspective on the EU.
The project Building Bridges between National Perspectives on the EU is co-funded by the “Europe for citizens” programme of the European Union.
