On 9 and 10 November 2026, Citeuropass is holding a working meeting in Grenoble to build a European consortium with the organisations that want to take part. The aim is a network of universities, associations and business partners in Europe developing projects for young people on European citizenship, entrepreneurship and sustainability.

On Monday, participants get to know one another through the cooperative game Citeuropass Audit, then each organisation sets out its expectations. On Tuesday, partners share their know-how, from frugal innovation to European citizens’ initiatives, and the afternoon is given over to the joint consortium proposal.

The meeting takes place at the Muse student services building (Pépite oZer) in Saint-Martin-d’Hères, France. To take part online or in person, write to us at contact@citeuropass.eu.

  1. Get to know one another around our shared interests: Europe, citizenship, entrepreneurship, interactive teaching methods and frugality.
