EDU2030: Youth in Transition
I care, we care.
“In this year of pandemic – and beyond – this must be Europe’s motto, too.
This is the most important lesson that I hope we can learn from this crisis. It is a lesson about Europe.
We care for the weakest among us. We care for our neighbours. We care for our planet.
And we care for future generations.”
Ursula Von Der Leyen – President of the European Commission
