Next week, 130 young people will meet in Lisbon for the Jacques Delors Agora 🇵🇹 During the selection process, our aim was always to foster an #inclusive environment. Here's a few statistics to highlight that👇 🌐 Our participants represent 33 nationalities from 5 continents.

As we're 3⃣ days away from the Jacques Delors Agora, we thought it would be important to go over Jacques Delors' life and achievements. Born in Paris, Jacques Delors started his political career as a trade unionist before becoming an MEP and later, Minister of Finance 💶
