KCI Virtual Café “Celebrating the 20th anniversary of the 2004 EU enlargement"

 Web Activity, 26 sep 2024

This year, the EU celebrates 20 years of its biggest enlargement: on 1 May 2004, ten countries (Cyprus, Czechia, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia) joined the European Union, which grew from 15 to 25 members. This historic enlargement of the EU, increasing the number of Member States by two-thirds overnight, was the culmination of a long accession process. It signalled the reunification of a Europe that had been divided for half a century. The enlargement made the EU the world's largest integrated market and increased trade between Member States, contributing to economic growth both in the EU and the acceding countries. The 2004 enlargement languages will be in the spotlight: our interpreters will be providing simultaneous interpretation from all of them into French, German and English, providing participants with a nice opportunity to witness simultaneous interpretation in action.

Target groups:  Adults (in general) Language teachers Language experts General public Policy deciders/politicians at national

Organizer: European Commission
Estimated number of participants/people involved: 70
Contact Name: Caroline Dewynter, Daniel Pashley
