Evento multiplier a Brescia

Sabato 18 febbraio si è tenuto presso la sede di Brescia dell’Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (Sala della Gloria – via Trieste 17, Brescia) il seminario “Europe 2038: le speranze e le preoccupazioni dei giovani sul futuro dell’Europa”. Durante il convegno sono stati presentati i risultati italiani della survey on-line del progetto “Europe2038”. Dai risultati è emerso che i giovani credono nell’Europa, circa il 92% dei giovani adulti (19-25 anni) ha espresso la volontà di rimanere in essa. In generale i giovani si identificano con l’essere europei e credono nei valori dell’Europa. Tra le priorità che i giovani segnalano emerge, in particolare, il rispetto dei diritti umani (48,50%) e l’istruzione (47,70%). Tra le preoccupazioni principali, il terrorismo (44,60%) e la disoccupazione (40,90%). Si evidenzia, inoltre, che i giovani si coinvolgono nelle questioni che riguardano l’Europa soprattutto in maniera passiva (l’85% ha dichiarato di acquisire informazioni da tv, radio, giornali; l’80% discute le problematiche dell’UE all’interno delle proprie reti di conoscenza: solo il 51.5% ha visitato un sito web sull’UE). I temi dell’istruzione, della disoccupazione e del coinvolgimento dei giovani rispetto all’Europa, sono stati gli argomenti principali trattati dall’On. Luigi Morgano, Parlamentare Europeo, l’On. Valentina Aprea, Assessore all’Istruzione Formazione Lavoro della Regione Lombardia, e i rappresentanti della società civile (UST Brescia, “Il Calabrone”, CFP Lonati). In generale, quindi, i giovani italiani hanno fiducia nell’Europa, ma emerge un divario tra giovani e istituzioni europee. È necessario, pertanto, promuovere esperienze dirette, concrete di cosa significhi Europa e instaurare un dialogo con le istituzioni. Già un piccolo passo in questa direzione è stato fatto oggi!
