The second part of the course dedicated to a selection of Italian representatives to the European Parliament and the European Economic and Social Committee took place from 4 to 6 May 2021.

The course was scheduled to take place over four days in May 2020 at the Angevin Castle in Gaeta. Due to the Covid-19 emergency, the appointment was postponed to November, with the hope that the course could be held in person. In November 2020, three modules were presented remotely due to the restrictions imposed, and the remaining modules in May 2021.

Participants were provided with all the teaching aids and the start of a collaborative process that will enable support in finding solutions to the complex challenges facing decision-makers.

On November 5th, the first school for Italian representatives at the European Parliament and at the European Economic and Social Committee has been held.

Due to the emergency Covid-19, the first three modules have been implemented on-line, addressing the anthropology, game theories and risks.

The course will be completed in spring 2021, when we hopefully will be allowed to implement the lessons in an additional 3-day run.
