Can the EU Create Europeans?

What: Erasmus is one of the most popular programs that the EU offers. However, the exchange, which is a smaller part of the general Erasmus+ program, has been criticized for being elitist and creating a bottleneck for making people feel more European. We discuss the 'Erasmus effect' and relate it to future policies that are being considered. Sources: Sources can be found on our website at www.romuluseurope.eu On that website you can find opinion pieces, interviews, analysis articles, and source documents that all work towards a common goal: make Europeans more informed, confident, and excited about the future of Europe. If you are a European with a passionate view on something related to Europe and or want to get in touch with us, please send us an article or just an email: [email protected] About Us: A team of Europeans that are tired of the lack of supply of European content and, quite honestly, the quality of what already existed.
