AEGEE Bamberg is a registered association (eingetragener Verein) and was founded on the 21st October 1999. Our work consisted ever since of fostering and promoting intercultural exchange and European identity in the beautiful city of Bamberg. Additionally, we organize cultural events to give interested students an insight into the Franconian way of life.
We strongly believe that the voice of young people needs to be heard in Europe and that we are able to contribute to that through the AEGEEans representing us on the European level.
AEGEE: 3 key points
Advocacy and Policy: State your opinion!
- AEGEE gathers the opinions of European students and represents them towards stakeholders through campaigns, lobby actions, conferences and membership in bigger advocacy platforms.
- AEGEE informs students and young people about the impact which European policies have in their lives and opportunities they offer.
Intercultural Exchange: Travel Europe!
- AEGEE creates a space for members of different backgrounds to meet in order to foster mutual understanding.
- AEGEE supports mobility and encourages young people to cross borders and make new friends, to break stereotypes and strengthen tolerance, respect and solidarity.
Thematic Projects: Make an impact!
- Thematic projects, both local and international, are initiatives developed by members of AEGEE.
- They deal with current challenges in the European society, create awareness among young people and propose solutions from a students’ point of view.
