Description
One of the main goals of this conference is to simulate the decision-making procedures of the European Union. In this way students will get the opportunity to use the knowledge they acquired during their studies practically and gain some valuable professional experience. Moreover, the organizers’ second goal is for the participant to have fun. Participating in this conference will create a chance for young professionals to strengthen connections, exchange ideas, encounter different cultures and languages, improve their personal skills, experience and learn about the way the European Union functions. This is a young project recognized by the American University in Bulgaria which is to become a tradition of the student body called European Society Club. Several experienced students from AUBG decided to join together and make something new, challenging and inspiring. Thanks to much effort and enthusiasm this novel idea is about to be realized in April 2014. Council of European Union and European Council Simulation 2014 will simulate the work of two European Union institutions that are of crucial importance for the proper functioning of the European Union. Participating in this conference will help participants to broaden their knowledge about the rules and procedures of the decision making processes in the EU.
