Educational Trip to European Parliament in Strasbourg

(16 Jan 2008)
The trip was subsidised by the European Commission and entailed a meeting with five of the Irish Members of Parliament and access to the Visitors Gallery of the Parliament itself.

Apart from learning about the workings of the Parliament and the many important debates currently on the EU agenda, the trip gave the students the chance to experience some of the sights of a beautiful European city, Strasbourg.
