Bike with us! Greater Europe Bikes aims to unite youth from EU and CIS countries by visiting each other by bike. Our young team of motivated students and young professionals with a passion for Europe, CIS and intercultural dialogue will set out a cycle route from Saint-Petersburg to Paris, on the way crossing different countries, enabling numerous cultures to meet, overcome stereotypes and tell others about their experiences. The project will last for four weeks. Vote for us and join us!

“Living together beyond frontiers” : our differences, our resemblances, our strengths, our weaknesses, all our opportunities ... Three meetings with French, German and Belgian young people from 18 to 25 years old. One aim: Get to know better their neighbors’ culture, communicate with them, imagine new actions and move forward to build projects all together. All three meetings will include sport and cultural activities and each meeting will focus on various aspects of “diversity and inclusion”.

July 2018: With the relay “1000 Miles” a true human, cultural and athletic challenge will take place in our town. French, German and English volunteers will be ready to run the 1000 km which separate Le Lion d’Angers and Bad Buchau in Germany. On that occasion, French pupils from primary and secondary schools in Le Lion d’Angers will send a “piece of France” in a treasure chest as a present to Germany, then to England, before the chest will return to France.

Young people have no influence on European politics? A widespread misconception as the low turnout of voters aged 21-24 (35%) has shown in the last European elections. In 2019 Europeans again elect their parliament. The New Federalist and his partner magazines in four languages want to provide coverage of the event from a European not a national angle. Therefore we organise a European Media Seminar in April 2018 that will serve as a place for Exchange and training for young Europeans.

The Triangle Orchestra is a unique, life-changing musical adventure spanning three historic European cultural centers – Paris, Łódź and Weimar – linked by an unexpected common thread: Yiddish music. The project invites 32 young Polish, German and French musicians to an encounter with the single surviving Yiddish opera, “Dovid un Bas-Sheve.” A series of immersive workshops and rehearsals in each city will culminate in the world premiere performance of the orchestral arrangement of the opera.

In future, we want to see more community gardens in public space in Europe and beyond. We belief they make our cities green and social. Each of us has gained so far diverse experiences and faces various challenges that are valuable for the others, e.g. when working together with administration, communicating with neighbourhood initiatives or getting access to public space. With our dialogue, we look forward to install a sustainable knowledge transfer between France, Germany and Poland.

Will we get old alone? In Europe, between 5 and 20% of people over the age of 60 feel alone, so 1.5 million people in France, 2.5 in England ... Loneliness and isolation are increasing among people over 75 years of age. To face this challenge, a committed civil society is needed to recreate relationships with the oldest. Our project is to organize a large conference on this theme, to give to more citizens the opportunity to engage themselves in the fight against isolation of the elderly.

The 4 days convention in Germany 2017 is a gathering of martial artists to exchange best practices on the subject of training with and for people with disabilities and for children as means of violence prevention. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art that promotes the concept that a weaker person can successfully defend against a stronger assailant by using leverage and proper technique. BJJ is therefore suitable for people with disabilities and as rough and tumble play for children.

Sustainability is one of the priorities in Europe and becomes more and more important in technology. It is therefore essential to reflect on this issue on a European level. The purpose of our project is to make apprentices in Electrical Engineering from Germany, France and Poland think about the issues of sustainability and to include these issues in their vocational training. It allows them to exchange about their practice and experiences.
