Educational Projects
Euro Challenge
The Euro Challenge competition is an educational opportunity for U.S. high school students to learn about the EU and the euro. Teams select one member country in the Eurozone to examine an economic problem at the country level, then identify policies for responding to that problem. Teams compete at the regional and national level, with the top five teams receiving scholarship awards. Learn more.
Schuman Challenge
The Schuman Challenge is an academic competition for undergraduate students from D.C.-area colleges and universities to engage in rigorous dialogue on transatlantic issues. Student teams analyze opportunities and challenges for effective transatlantic cooperation, then present and defend their strategy in front of a panel of judges at the EU Delegation.
