The main goal of this project is to share many experiences from different types of European mobilities via this literary competition, which is intended for young participants of mobilities aged 16 to 35. This contest is focused on many types of projects, such as the Erasmus+ Youth Exchange, DiscoverEU competition, Erasmus+ study visit or traineeship programme, European Solidarity Corps, or traineeship programme in the EU institutions.
Thanks to this event, young competitors from the Czech Republic can answer questions like “Have you met the love of your life during your Erasmus+ study visit? Did you go on a work placement and land your dream job? Did you volunteer abroad and did it change your outlook on life? Write to us about it! It doesn’t matter if you changed the world for the better, made friends for life, had the best party of your life, or just got to know yourself better. Tell us your story of how you experienced Europe and win great prizes!”
In any form (essay, reflection, feuilleton, diary, etc.) and at least 1 standard page, participants write personal experiences and stories from different European projects. The three best will win open train tickets to Europe from the RegioJet company (Czech railway company) to the total value of 6000 CZK and Eurodesk goodies. The authors’ reading is also part of this event. Invited young competitors read their stories during this meeting in Café NOTA Pardubice, and organisers announce the results and present the prizes.
The event is organised on the occasion of European Youth Week 2024 and celebrates 20 years of the Czech Republic as a member state of the European Union. The partners of the event are Eurocentrum Hradec Králové and Europe Direct Hradec Králové. The Eurodesk logo and promotion are provided.
