Press release - Partnership EuropaNova x POLITICO

PRESS RELEASE

EuropaNova and POLITICO form a partnership for 2024 European elections

Thursday, March 14, 2024 

As part of the upcoming European elections on June 9, 2024, the EuropaNova association is pleased to announce its partnership with POLITICO for a series of exclusive interviews entitled "European Elections 2024: Candidates answer 'Playbook Paris'" at EuropaNova, 64 bis Avenue de New York, from March to April 2024.

In 2019, 58% of young people did not vote in the European elections, highlighting a worrying abstention rate. EuropaNova and POLITICO are joining forces to raise awareness among citizens of the importance of their democratic participation and to encourage informed awareness of European issues.

March 28 will mark the launch of this series of interviews, in which the main candidates heading the list for the European elections will be invited to debate the crucial issues facing Europe today. These interviews will offer a unique platform for exchanging views, dissecting party programs and understanding the specific issues at stake for France and its role in the European Union. The first guests will be Jordan Bardella on March 28 and Valérie Hayer on April 3.

This event represents an exceptional opportunity for French voters to familiarize themselves with the main political parties in the running, and their visions and proposals for the future of Europe. The talks will begin with a series of questions to the guest candidate, followed by a question-and-answer session with participants in the room, encouraging a direct and enriching dialogue.

EuropaNova is delighted to be collaborating with POLITICO on this vitally important event, which will help to enrich public debate and promote committed participation in the European elections.
