The future of EU studies is the focus of this year's annual Jean Monnet Conference, which takes place in Brussels on 1 and 2 October. European Commission President José Manuel Barroso and Androulla Vassiliou, Commissioner for Education, Training, Multilingualism and Youth, will open the event. Some 350 experts, including Jean Monnet professors, other academics, decision-makers and representatives from international organisations and business, will take a fresh look at the core objective of the Jean Monnet Actions: promoting excellence in teaching and research in European Union studies worldwide, as well as new ways of delivering teaching in this area. The Jean Monnet Actions are part of Erasmus+, the new European Union programme for education, training, youth and sport.
