Elisa Hippert
born 1986
Teacher of German and History
For me Europe means...
... Peace and Security. My generation has become accustomed to taking peace for granted in Europe. But the last few years have shown how fragile peace is in Europe. Be it internally through right-wing populism or externally through the war in Ukraine..
Becci-Sue Schmitz
born 1992
Teacher
For me Europe means...
... a union of various different countries into one big whole. It is imperative that European countries recognise this union as a cohesion that can strengthen them. Only together are we strong to face all challenges.
Oswa Moreira
born 1982
Seamstress
For me Europe means...
... the realisation of a shared vision in which diversity and cooperation across borders form the basis for a strong and inclusive community..
Eolia Verstichel-Boulanger
born 1994
Therapist
For me Europe means...
... mutual aid, sharing, openness to cultures and support with all cross-national problems.
Conny Jaroni
born 1985
Graduated educator
For me Europe means...
... Cohesion and making ourselves strong together for the challenges that we and the future generation will be confronted with. Our children should grow up in a common Europe that manages to find solutions together to implement a humane refugee and reasonable labour migration policy, to get the traffic problem under control and to counter threats such as war, pandemics or the climate crisis.
Estelle Klümper
born 1984
Pedagogue
For me Europe means...
... interculturality, freedom of life, expression and equality. Europe is an opportunity to live together in diversity.
Julie Schannes
born 1996
Qualified educator
For me Europe means...
... a modern life. The people of Europe are on the one hand proud of their nationality, tradition and origin and at the same time work together to build a better, common world for the next generation.
Cheryl Chaussy
born 1993
Qualified educator
For me Europe means...
... géigensäiteg Ennerstëtzung, Zesummenhalt an déi eenzeg Méiglechkeet op eng friddlech Zukunft.
Sabrina Roob
born 1986
Teacher
For me Europe means...
... cohesion. Only if we all stick together can we tackle the political, social and climatological challenges that still lie ahead.
Julia de Graaf
born 1984
Employee at the European Investment Bank (EIB)
For me Europe means...
... diversity, tolerance and prosperity, a future for my children.
Serge-Arno Klümper
born 1954
Economist
For me Europe means...
... the place I call home, a unique project in history where nations decide to drop borders and to create a new togetherness. The only way for us to survive as a civilisation in the globalised world.
Daniel Silva
born 1983
IT trainer
For me Europe means...
... to be united in diversity. As a Luxembourger of Portuguese origins married to an Estonian, I advocate that shared values enrich our lives, by reflecting the essence of our cross-cultural bonds. The economic and personal opportunities that Europe provides, coupled with the shared values it embraces, enrich our lives daily.
George Penn
born 1995
General secretary for Volt Europa
For me Europe means...
... everything. All of my opportunities in life have been made possible because of Europe; my partner, my best friends, my career, my outlook, my hope, and my adopted home in Luxembourg that I am so grateful to have been warmly welcomed into. Europe is a future together that recognises our shared past in violence, and says: “No more! Together we can work on better!”
Michel Conter
born 1989
Managing director
For me Europe means...
... a peaceful collaboration between nations of many varying cultures to build a prosperous, inclusive and sustainable future for each and everyone of us and future generations. Only united we can face an uncertain future and protect ourselves against the powers that be. A united Europe is a safe and strong Europe.
Andrea Salis
born 1994
State employee, Nurse Dispatcher
For me Europe means...
... freedom, security and prosperity in an increasingly complicated world. The EU is one of the greatest success stories of our recent history; those who stand up for a strong Europe therefore also stand up for a strong Luxembourg. Our goal must be to strengthen, reform and transform Europe into a Europe of citizens, and this transformation must start at the national level.
Samuel Moïse
geb. 1999
Student of economics (management) and law
For me Europe means...
... cohesion. In my view, only a strong and united Europe can effectively resolve the environmental challenges we face, as well as the challenges of migration, while guaranteeing human dignity. Together, by implementing common policies and working closely together, European countries can make significant progress in protecting our planet, defending human rights and strengthening their role on the international stage.
Danny Stirn
born 1991
Art Director (Graphic Design)
For me Europe means...
... cultural diversity. The openness of Europe helps people to come to terms with different identities, to put national norms into perspective and thus to find their own voice.
Jo Siebenaler
born 1994
Employee
For me Europe means…
... a vibrant diversity of cultural identities in close cooperation between countries to overcome challenges together and to preserve the peace we have worked so hard to achieve.
Loris Di Bari
born 1998
Student of economics (international economic relations and international management of innovation)
For me Europe means…
... cohesion, peace and working together for the common good.
Sacha Fuchs
born 1990
State employee
For me Europe means…
... Diversity in all areas. Europe has been shaped by a lot of wars through which the people have emerged stronger. We are living in a golden age in which religious and cultural differences are celebrated and which brings Europeans closer together instead of driving them apart. At least, this is the vision and we will do everything we can to ensure that this vision becomes and remains a reality.
Leo Fario
born 1990
State project manager
For me Europe means…
... community. People working together and standing up together for their well-being and their future is what makes up the European spirit.
Christophe Schannes
born 1994
Student of mathematical biometrics
For me Europe means…
... a model of international cooperation. As technology continues to evolve and connect us more easily and quickly, cooperation with other countries is even more important. More Europe means better cooperation to solve complex global problems.
Luca Di Bari
born 1995
Student of mobility and infrastructure
For me Europe means…
... a torch of hope, values such as humanity, respect and prosperity through the unity of diverse cultures. Seeing this vast community, despite challenges, make it together and represent the successful model of democracy brings me joy. I feel deeply committed to working to protect this extraordinary idea of collective strength and cooperation.
Fiona Godfrey
born 1965
Independent Advisor on EU Health and Migration Policy
For me Europe means…
... meeting my German husband at university in the UK, moving with him to Luxembourg, raising our dual national family together and building a career across the EU that I never dreamed I would have. People have built the EU and it has to work for all of its residents, not just the lucky few.
Philippe Schannes
born 1989
Teacher of Philosophy
For me Europe means…
... freedom of every kind. European culture is characterised by freedom and if people in Europe are suddenly no longer free because of social problems, an impending climate catastrophe or a lack of tolerance, something urgently needs to change. For me, more Europe means more freedom to live!
Daniel Philippe
born 1983
Lawyer
For me Europe means…
... to bring all Europeans closer together. In the past, Europeans emigrated to New York if they wanted to live and work together. Today, we meet together in Luxembourg. Merci, Europe!
