In der Broschüre „Dessine-moi...“ – Zeiskizzen – berichten 43 EWSA-Mitglieder aus den 27 EU-Mitgliedstaaten, wie sie die Zeit zwischen April und September 2020 erlebt haben. Unter dem Motto „Dessine-moi...“ (Zeichne mir...) aus dem Buch von Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Der kleine Prinz (Le Petit Prince) haben wir die Mitglieder gebeten, uns das „Unsichtbare“ zu erzählen. Mit ihren persönlichen Geschichten nehmen uns die Mitglieder auf eine Reise in ihre private Welt mit und bieten uns ein Mosaik aus Landschaften, Bildern, Farben und Klängen. Entdecken Sie diese authentischen Geschichten, die umso mehr Bedeutung haben, als sie mit großer Intensität erlebt wurden.
Herzlichen Dank an alle Mitglieder, die zu dieser Broschüre beigetragen haben:
