ETTW issues response to Paris declaration
By Noreen Bowden | November 27, 2008
The Europeans Throughout the World have issued a response to the declaration issued at “Europe on the Move: the first meeting of Europeans resident outside their country of origin”, held in Paris on 30 September. ETTW, of which Ean is a member, attended the meeting, which was aimed at bringing together emigrant Europeans to work toward a European policy for the EU’s citizens abroad.
The response document is aimed at European institutions to convey the most important issues of the national associations of European expatriates. It covers such topics as consular coordination, prisoners, social security, supplementary pensions, dual nationality, and political recognition.
Europeans Throughout the World is a non-governmental federation of national associations for residents abroad. Visit them at www.euromonde.org.
