What is the European project? What does the EU do for us and how does it work ? This slide presentation will help you explain the basics of the EU, prepare the ground for discussions, and give you tips on how to stay in touch with the EU. It is made up of four sections, which can be used separately or as a whole. You can use it along with our EU quiz for testing the knowledge of your class/audience.
