Initiative EUROPE DIRECT Rijeka and our agency, Rijeka successfully hosted two events promoting EU programmes and initiatives during 16 and 17 March – the ‘EU Single Market Tour’ and the ‘Europa.Coffee Tour!’.
Rijeka has made the best use of the fact that it has become the only European city to host these two traveling events at the same time, so many Rijeka women and citizens have actively participated in the interactive events offered by the "Shipping the EU Single Market" event, while on Sunday 17 March, as part of the Alpine-Adriatic part of the "Europe.Coffe Tour!", more than 200 coffees were distributed to our fellow citizens. During the two-day programme, more than 1,000 citizens stopped and asked their question about the European Union or gave their comment.
During the two days of the "Shipping the EU Single Market" event, we discussed all the benefits that the EU Single Market It also brings what it means to our daily lives. Through numerous interactive content, quizzes, tests and games, citizens got acquainted with the possibilities that are available to them every day, when they go on a trip to another country, when they want to move to another country and with a number of other possibilities that they are often unaware of themselves. In addition to winning numerous awards, our fellow citizens also showed enviable knowledge about the European Union, its institutions, its activities and activities.
On Sunday, 17 March, as part of the "Europe.Coffe Tour!", the citizens of Rijeka and Rijeka, together with free coffee, discussed the European Union, its current state and presented their ideas for a better common future for all EU citizens.
The European Union has over 447 million citizens and 23 million businesses, and it is essential that our fellow citizens are also informed about all the benefits, opportunities and benefits of living in the European Union and how they can use them for a better life and future. The EU single market brings more products on shelves in shops, these products must meet certain quality standards set throughout the Union, entrepreneurs can more easily internationalise their business. Also, when travelling to an EU member state, as part of "roam like at home", mobile services can be used like at home, the European Health Insurance Card allows the use of necessary health services under the same conditions as for citizens of that country…
Such manifestations are an ideal opportunity for such conversations, and therefore Representation of the European Commission in Croatia endorsed these two initiatives.
Thank you for your response!
