La Joven Orquesta de la Unión Europea (EUYO) acaba de anunciar mediante un comunicado público, el año en el que se cumplen 40 desde su creación como una de las mejores embajadoras culturales de la UE, que a partir de septiembre de 2016 cesará sus actividades debido a la falta de fondos procedentes de la Unión Europea.
How can you help?
We are beginning a campaign to try to help safeguard a sustainable future of the European Union Youth Orchestra. If you would like to contribute to this campaign there are several ways to do so.
Firstly, you can write to the European Union to express your support for the EUYO and to request that Martin Schulz, President of the European Parliament and Honorary President of the EUYO, Jean-Claude Juncker, President of the European Commission, and Commissioner Tibor Navracsics, European Commissioner for Education, Culture, Youth and Sport ensure adequate funding for the continuation of the Orchestra.
