There is a new European Parliament – and it is a changed one, with new challenges and perspectives. More than 60% of Members of the European Parliament are new and the balance of power has changed drastically as old coalitions and alliances no longer have the strength they used to have.
 
In October the European Parliament will hold hearings and will vote on whether or not to accept the new European Commission – but some MEPs have considerably more influence on the outcome than others.
 
Do you want to understand how this new European Parliament really works? The Euraffex #EPBootCamp is a one-day intensive seminar focusing on the internal functioning of the Parliament. From new power structures and complicated committee procedures to the hearings of the new Commissioners - navigating the maze of the European Parliament is never easy and our #EPBootCamp will explain it all. We will walk you through the decision-making and result process in which MEPs engage with. Our #EPBootCamp leaves theory at the doorstep, and dives straight into the complexity and functionality of the European Parliament. It will cover topics such as:

• New alliances and balance of power in the new European Parliament
• Hearings of the new European Commission
• The new complex organization of the European Parliament
• The political groups and their alliances
• Who are the key players in the Parliament at the various stages of the legislative process
• Which titles are superficial in reality – and who are the MEPs with power and insight
• Understanding how an MEP’s office functions, how important the staff can be and how to engage with them
• And much, much more
