Euro Challenge

The Euro Challenge competition is an exciting educational opportunity for American high school students to learn about the European Union and the euro. Student teams select one member country of the “euro area” (the 19 EU member countries that have adopted the euro so far), to examine an economic problem at the country level, and to identify policies for responding to that problem. Teams compete at the regional and national level, with the top five teams receiving scholarship awards. Learn more
   

Schuman Challenge

The Schuman Challenge is an academic competition for undergraduate students from DC-area colleges and universities to engage in rigorous dialogue on transatlantic issues. Student teams, under the guidance of a faculty mentor, analyze the opportunities and challenges for effective transatlantic implementation of one of the five priorities of the EU’s Global Strategy and present and defend their strategy in front of a panel of judges at the EU Delegation. Learn more
   

EU Simulations – "Model EU"

EU simulations (Model EU) are an excellent way for high school and college students to learn first-hand about how EU institutions work. Imagine sitting behind a table representing one of the EU's Member States at a European Council meeting or as a commissioner representing the European Commission before a meeting of the Council of the EU. There are many ways to run Model EU and we've developed some toolkits to help you get started. Learn more
