Europe Day held on 9 May every year celebrates peace and unity in Europe. The date marks the anniversary of the historic 'Schuman declaration' that set out his idea for a new form of political cooperation in Europe, which would make war between Europe's nations unthinkable. Schuman's proposal is considered to be the beginning of what is now the European Union.

💙 Europe Day is an annual celebration that marks the anniversary of the Schuman Declaration, a pivotal moment in European history. The declaration, proposed by French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman, called for the establishment of a supranational European institution to oversee the production of coal and steel in Europe. This proposal laid the foundation for what would eventually become the European Union. Europe Day is an opportunity to celebrate the peace and unity that the EU has brought to the continent, as well as to reflect on the values of democracy, human rights, and solidarity that the EU upholds. It is also a time to promote European cultural diversity and heritage, as well as to raise awareness about the EU's role in shaping global affairs. Through various events and activities, Europe Day serves as a reminder of the importance of European cooperation and integration in today's interconnected world. 💛 #HappyEuropeDay #Sustainability #9thofMay

Today is Europe Day! 🇪🇺♥️🙏 A European by heart, soul, family, history and, most important, profound conviction, remembering the foundations, achievements and great prospects of the Europe as we have built it, is more important than ever! As we celebrate Europe Day this May 9th, la Saint Schuman for the initiated, we not only honor the visionary 1950 Schuman Declaration that laid the foundations of the European Union, but we also embrace the spirit of unity that defines our diverse continent. Europe Day is a poignant reminder of our shared achievements and the challenges that lie ahead. This year, as Europe faces crucial times, your support and active participation are more important than ever. Let us use this opportunity to strengthen our commitment to a thriving and united Europe. We also look towards the forthcoming European elections from June 6th to 9th, which are pivotal in shaping the future direction of our Union. Let us all remember that the European Union as we know it did not come by chance, fate or historic development. It requires the active participation, power of will, creativity, strength and passion of us all to keep the European spirit alive every day and continue to develop and strengthen it to face and overcome the tremendous challenges lying ahead. Only by our actions today our children will experience the inspiring spirit of unity and diversity the European Union stands for. And today perhaps more importantly: lasting peace and economic prosperity. #europeanunion #democracy #europeanelections #europeanparliament https://lnkd.in/dNzgmYBC

🇪🇺 Today is Europe Day! 🇪🇺 Celebrating solidarity, democracy, and diversity, Europe Day holds special significance as it marks the anniversary of the Schuman Declaration presented in 1950. This historic document laid the groundwork for cooperation, solidarity, and lasting peace on our continent, shaping the future of Europe. After the devastation of World War II, a vision emerged among European politicians for a united Europe to prevent future conflicts. The Schuman Declaration, spearheaded by French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman, outlined a bold vision of pooling strategic resources, notably coal and steel, to foster unity and deter war between nations. In 1951, the Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community was signed by six nations, laying the foundations for European integration. This momentous step paved the way for today's European Union, evolving from an economic community to a political union committed to democracy, diversity, and unity. Schuman famously stated, "Europe will not be made all at once, or according to a single plan. It will be built through concrete achievements which first create a de facto solidarity." As we commemorate Europe Day in 2024, we reflect on the remarkable journey from post-war devastation to a union of peace and prosperity. The principles embodied in the Schuman Declaration continue to guide the EU, inspiring a continent united in its diversity. Today, let us reaffirm our commitment to the values of solidarity, democracy, and unity that define Europe. Happy Europe Day to all! #EuropeDay #SchumanDeclaration #UnityInDiversity #PeaceAndProsperity 🌍🤝 https://lnkd.in/ejuuDR88

** Celebrating Europe Day: A journey of unity and progress ** As May 9th swiftly approaches, we stand on the threshold of a significant day in European history – Europe Day, an annual celebration marking the Schuman Declaration of 1950, the cornerstone of the European Union as we know it today. The European Union has grown from its original six founding members – Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands – to encompass 27 member states, fostering cooperation, collaboration, and peace across the continent. From a legal standpoint, the European Union plays a central role in shaping laws and policies that affect the daily lives of its citizens. The EU has its own legal system, which includes regulations, directives, and treaties that govern various aspects of European integration, such as trade, competition, environmental protection, and human rights. For businesses operating in Europe, understanding EU law is essential for compliance and success in the single market. As we anticipate Europe Day tomorrow, let us reflect on the journey of European integration and the values it represents. In the face of challenges, let solidarity and cooperation guide our path forward, ensuring a brighter future for all Europeans. Let's unite in celebration of our shared heritage and commitment to a prosperous, peaceful Europe. #EuropeDay #EUHistory #EULaw
