    This exhibition features a series of oil canvas paintings by the artist Bruce Thurman. Taking the form of an "illustrated cookbook", the exhibition offers viewers a journey through the different recipes of Europe and its purpose is to showcase Europe's different food cultures, on the one hand, and the diversity and similarity found in European food culture, on the other.

  • The study was prepared by a Senior Policy Advisor from TUAC (the Trade Union Advisory Committee to the OECD) for Group II.
    It sets out to outline the different dimensions of the digital transformation on sectors and business models and hence on the quantity and quality of work.
    This event will take place in the form of a panel workshop, on 26 November 2018, in meeting room JDE 62, in the JDE building.
    The author of the study has been invited to deliver the keynote speech and will present their work and debate with the participants.

    An Exhibition on the 60th Anniversary of Regulation 1/1958

    This year (2018) we celebrate the 60th anniversary of the entry into force of Regulation 1/1958 which determined the languages to be used by the EU institutions and set out the language arrangements applicable to them.

    Regulation 1/1958 has played a fundamental role in the European construction, in that it allows work to be carried in each of the Member States' languages, thereby strengthening the participation of civil society as well as the EU's democratic legitimacy.

    In this context the exhibition is a tribute to a multilingual Europe, while also reinforcing its values and recognising the contribution it has made.

    The exhibition is being organised in cooperation with the Directorate for Translation.
