EUROPE DIRECT Hainaut Hauts-de-France
Our organization has been hosting the EUROPE DIRECT HAINAUT HAUTS-DE-FRANCE centre since 2022. The EUROPE DIRECT mission, which has been awarded the European Commission’s label, aims to foster dialogue, European debate and European action at local level.
Our EUROPE DIRECT HAINAUT HAUTS-DE-FRANCE centre aims to raise awareness, inform, document and guide the general public, local stakeholders and elected representatives on European issues and to make Europe live in the territory, while listening to their expectations of the European institutions.
Our centre is thus the direct relay between the European Union and the territory of Hainaut. The EUROPE DIRECT HAINAUT HAUTS-DE-FRANCE activities are open to all public, citizens, associations and local authorities.
