goals and prepares a common agenda determining the topics and major issues that will
be addressed by the Council over an 18 month period. On the basis of this programme,
each of the three countries prepares its own more detailed 6-month programme.
The current trio is made up of the presidencies of the Germany, Portugal and Slovenia.

At a moment when the COVID-19 pandemic poses difficult and significant challenges to the EU, Portugal's

Lab
Over the past years we learned about the fact that if we want to serve our collective dreams, we need to
share design thinking, making, and enacting to visualize and explore the future together. Almost every
aspect of development can be improved with greater involvement of people and, hopefully, more value
contributed by the design capabilities of many.

THE The celebration of Day of Europe
Each year, since 1950 – on 9th May – Europe celebrates its Unity.
CELEBRATION
It is a key moment to remember and celebrate peace and our ideals of solidary
and cooperation to develop a better future together.
Why May 9th? It is the commemoration day of the Shuman Declaration – the
origin of our joining. It marks the beginning of an economic partnership based
OF DAY
on the shared management of coal and steel production.
The Shuman’s idea, then minister of foreign affairs, behind this was to create
and consolidate a new political power at a higher level to ensure perpetual
peace after the WWII shock. EU is founded on the dream of unity, cooperation,
peace and common future. The month of May, by decision of the European
OF EUROPE
Institutions, became the time for celebrate, share and enjoy the European
dream. Seventy-one year on today, May the 9th.
The European Regions for Smart Communities Summit celebrates
May the 9th, the day of Europe, with an on-line recital with and original
arrangement of Beethoven’s Ode of Joy, the European Anthem.Beethoven’s Ode of Joy - The European anthem. Symphony No.9 by Ludwig van Beethoven The Ode of Joy composed in the 1824 by Beethoven - on Schiller’s 1785 poem An die Freude - is a success of romanticism, a gift for Europe in which we can trace our origins of peace and solidarity. The symphony’s final fourth movement was adopted by the Council of Europe in 1972 to celebrate Europe on Europe Day. For the European Union, it also symbolises the Union and its people. It is the expression of a vision, a symbol showing the ideal of European brotherhood. In fact, since the Anthem is only music without the choral part: the underlying idea is to use the universal language of music to express the European values and ideals, committed to freedom and peaceful sharing. In a nutshell: the EU unity in diversity! Monsaraz Castle In Reguengos de Monsaraz, Alentejo In the medieval village of Monsaraz, in Évora district, a forficate castle stands untouched. On the borders of Spain and within the rural region of Alentejo, you can seek out history, nature, culture and find it in a melting pot. The fortification - today classified as a National Monument - was built in the 14th century by King Dinis, taking on diverse features and functions throughout history. Indeed, its military architecture combines medieval and 17th-century influences. The walled structure keeps on defining the urban landscape of the village of Monsaraz. The oval enclosure is made from the combined use of shale, which is found plenty in the region, along with granite, red clay and lime.

CITY OF
ÉVORA © telegraph.co.uk © cm-evora.ptÉvora is the largest city in Alentejo and one of the largest cities in the interior of the country. The municipality is limited to the north by the municipality of Arraiolos, to the northeast by Estremoz, to the east by Redondo, to the southwest by Reguengos de Monsaraz, to the south by Portel, to the southwest by Viana do Alentejo and to the west by Montemor-o-Novo. This demographic dimension reflects the socio economic importance of the city and the polarizer that exerts on a vast surrounding region and still the strong tourist attractiveness at national and international level. Évora is an important location in rural settings. While other rural areas were losing population, the city has recorded continuous population growth. Its well-preserved historical centre is one of the richest monuments in Portugal, which is worth the epithet of City-Museum. In 1986, the historic centre of the city was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The Historical Centre presents the main tourist attractions of the city (the urban complex itself, the Roman temple, several churches, cultural facilities, etc.) and also some accommodation units. For these reasons, the Historical Centre is characterized by an intense daily movement that testifies to its vitality that you keep.
