Lakes are essential ecosystems for the rural communities living nearby. They
influence and affect the sustainable development of local communities. Lakes should be preserved, conserved, and maintained. With the EUbylakes project, lakes become the perfect stage to discuss the future of Europe freely. Eubylakes is about an Open-Air University for Europe and across Europe to discuss and design a talking path for our future Europe. It consists of an open learning academy divided into six modules and a final Lackathon.
The first three Modules examines the pillars of future Europe: Democracy,
Cohesion, Equality. The seconds move on analysing the drivers of its
sustainability: Climate Neutrality Biodiversity, Digital Innovation. The last
event is the Lakthon, a creative marathon to wrap-up the Modules learnings
and to develop new ideas to shape the Europe of the Future.

activities and participant-led conversations, EUbyLakes:
1 Promotes forward-looking discussions on the future of Europe
2 Increases participants' knowledge and understanding of EU,
3 Contributes to citizens' awareness of EU,
