Europamobil is a mobile project promoting European diversity to pupils. In order to do this, twenty participating students and graduates from different European countries will travel in a bus and visit 11 schools in the Ile-de-France region of France.
In each school they will organise workshops and seminars for pupils about European issues. The participants will develop the programme themselves during a preparatory week prior to the travel. Participants can gain practical experience in an international project environment, learn about European integration process and pedagogical methods.

The deadline for applications is July 15th 2010.
