Activities 2021

In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and the restructuring that took place between 2020 and 2021, the Jean Monnet Association was keen to continue its activities with the public as well as internal consolidation.

Thus, in 2021, the Association held several internal meetings with the members of the Management Committee and the Board of Directors, two General Assemblies (10 April 2021, 10 July 2021, 23 June 2021, 27 July 2021, 9 November 2021). It has progressively and successfully renewed its membership, with several new members from various EU countries.

In addition, the Jean Monnet Association participated in the Conference on the future of Europe by registering proposals on the platform dedicated to this subject:
