OBESSU welcomes the efforts of the European Commission to establish a European Education Area by 2025 but is concerned about the lack of funds that are dedicated to this purpose and that will undermine the realisation of such an ambitious endeavour.  

Last week the Belgian Government announced that young people from 16 years old will now be granted the right to vote for European Elections.

Belgium will be the third EU Member State to adopt this recommendation, following Austria and Malta, where 16 years old can instead vote at all levels.

OBESSU invites you to participate to the online training course for Inclusion Ambassadors organised in the framework of Inclusive Schools project.

On 25th September OBESSU participated in the annual General Assembly of the Lifelong Learning Platform. The LLLP is an organisation gathering together civil society organisations working on education at European level, from cradle to grave. Members of the LLLP include student organisations, higher education institutions, parents, early childhood organisations, youth and volunteering organisations and much more, encompassing the formal, non formal and informal sectors of education.

OBESSU has reopened the call for two motivated members to join the team and continue the work that has been done so far.
