The preparations of Eurizons 2007 have now started. From Feb 15 to 18 a smeinar is going to take place in Krakow, Poland, where the first ideas for Eurizons 2007 will be presented and more people from our European network for global education are invited to join the preparation process and enrich the new Eurizons project with their ideas and creativity.

After the great success of Eurizons 2006, a group of former hitchhikers and National Coordinators started to use their experiences to develop Eurizons 2007. The result of this process is a Europe-wide campaigning tour through several European countries, in order to educate a wide European public and particularly young development education activists. Eurizons is carried out by the GLEN-Network and will take place in September 2007.

To advance Eurizons 2007 further and to fill the project with life, ideas and enthusiasm we want to invite you to the Eurizons 2007 national teams, networking and preparation Seminar in February 2007. The seminar will take place from Thursday, February 15th to Sunday, February 18th 2007 in the nice polish city of Cracow. Please note, that this is a seminar for people willing to participate in the central or national coordination. Therefore a precondition of participation on the seminar is a committment to actively take part in the coordination of Eurizons 2007 and readiness to take over tasks and responsibilities!

The Eurizons 2007 national team, networking and preparation seminar offers you the opportunity to get actively involved in the planning process of the project. Your experiences and ideas, your creativity and enthusiasm will make the project work.

Supported by professional campaigners and event managers from all over Europe as well as experienced Eurizonists, the joint preparation of the project offers the possibility to start co-ordinated activities in the field of development politics and lobbying.
