AEGEE - Association des Etats Généraux des Etudiants de l'Europe - the European Students’ Forum is the largest pan-European network of students which promotes the idea of a Borderless Europe. As non-governmental, politically independent and non-profit making organisation, AEGEE is open for all youths. AEGEE was founded in Paris in 1985 and its members today number 18,000 spread over 42 European countries. AEGEE works towards enhancing communication and integration among students and young graduates, in a climate of cross-border cooperation. It is through such cooperation amongst more than 200 AEGEE branches all over Europe, that the Association turns its call for European integration into reality, aiming to develop an open and tolerant society.
AEGEE-Valletta founded in 1997, is the Maltese local antenna of the AEGEE-Europe Network. Our aims are to promote a unified Europe without prejudice, to strive for creating an open and tolerant society of today and tomorrow, to foster democracy, human rights, tolerance, cross-boarder co-operation, mobility and european dimension in education. We also give the opportunity to our members to participate in International Conferences and Seminars, Training Events and Case-Study Trips. Also we continuously encourage youths to participate in cultural events that are organised in the 200 antennas around Europe including the ever famous Summer Universities. As a local antenna we also organise a number of local events, for local youths and Erasmus / International Students alike.
