Welcome to the European Commission Funded
Project on "Orientations of Young Men and Women to Citizenship and European
Identity"
This project explores the views and
experiences of young men and women, aged 18-24, concerning their identity,
citizenship and attachment to locality, nation and Europe.
We are using surveys and more in-depth
discussions to speak both to random samples of young people and young people
studying subjects likely to lead to 'European careers' beyond their own
country.
We have chosen to talk to young people in
cities with contrasting histories of connection to the rest of Europe and the
European Union.
Studies are going on in Vienna and
Vorarlberg in Austria, Chemnitz and Bielefeld in (the former East and West)
Germany, Madrid and Bilbao in Spain, Prague and Bratislava, the capitals of the
relatively new Czech Republic and Slovakia, and in the UK in Manchester,
England and in Edinburgh, Scotland.
