After many hours, we have been giving form to our project.
If we believed that the education was the effective way for the knowledge of these two realities, why not to turn into teachers? We believe that from the infancy they must put on the foundations to promote the European citizenship and the commitment with the environment.
Of there that we realize activities in three directions: Infantile Education, Primary Education and secondary Education.

· Infantile Education. Approximation to Europe. His countries and his commitment with the environment. By means of stories, interactive games. The boys knew Europa's reality. Final product. The accomplishment of Europa's flags and commitment for the environment.

· Primary Education. In the assembly hall an introduction was done to the European Union, we put in coordination with the teacher of citizenship of 6 º ep and designed a dynamics. Every star of the Union, it would be a commitment with our planet and with the European values.

·Secondary Education.

First hand, we could know in his house, the budget of the EU, the importance of the relation between environment and cooperation, and know the work and commitment of the European Union.

· Interviews with Don Iñigo Méndez de Vigo, Secretary of State of Spain for the EU. To know first hand the paper of Spain and of Europe in the commitment with the environment. To bring the politics over to the school and to see the need of this one. (After trying for many means to put in touch with some politician of relief to be able to know first hand the response to our worries.

We manage to put in touch with a Member of Don Iñigo Méndez's office of Vigo, Secretary of State of Spain for the EU, with us attended with a lot of interest and request.

ESPAÑOL

Primera Pregunta: ¿Por qué existe la Unión Europea?

Respuesta: La principal razón del proceso de integración europeo es la necesidad de desarrollar un marco de cooperación, con unas instituciones comunes, que ha permitido desterrar la amenaza de una nueva confrontación armada entre los Estados europeos. Gracias a la Unión Europea, sus miembros viven hoy en paz y democracia, y han alcanzado un nivel muy elevado de bienestar.

Segunda Pregunta: ¿Cómo influye la Unión Europea en nuestro día a día?

Respuesta: Hasta tal punto Europa influye en nuestro día a día que si debiera buscar una comparación, le diría que es algo así como el aire que respiramos. Más del 80% de la normativa que rige nuestra vida cotidiana tiene que ver con la Unión Europea. Las medidas que se adoptan en las instituciones europeas se refieren a cosas que nos afectan tan directamente como las cuatro libertades fundamentales (personas, mercancías, servicios y capitales), la moneda, el empleo, el medio ambiente, la lucha contra la delincuencia organizada o la cooperación al desarrollo. Europa también se ocupa de manera destacada de la educación y la formación, en especial de los jóvenes.

Tercera Pregunta: ¿A qué se dedica el Secretario de Estado en la Unión Europea?

Respuesta: A la Secretaría de Estado que dirijo corresponde, en primer lugar, una labor de coordinación de los diversos Ministerios para la fijación de la posición de España en las cuestiones europeas. Además, como Secretario de Estado para los Asuntos de la Unión Europea, represento a España en el Consejo de Asuntos Generales, responsable, entre otras cosas, de la preparación y seguimiento del Consejo Europeo. También es competencia de esta Secretaría de Estado las relaciones bilaterales de España con los países europeos.

Cuarta Pregunta: ¿Cuáles son los principales valores de la Unión Europea? ¿Cómo serán reflejados en nuestra vida?

Respuesta: Uno de los elementos consustanciales de la Unión Europea es que se trata de una comunidad de valores. Así lo reconocen los Tratados y por ello los valores revisten una importancia capital en Europa. Estos valores son la democracia, el Estado de derecho y la protección de los derechos humanos. La Unión Europea también se basa en la responsabilidad y la solidaridad entre sus Estados miembros. Añadiría que otra de sus señas de identidad es el Estado de bienestar. Todo ello tiene un impacto directo en nuestra vida.

Quinta Pregunta: ¿Por qué es tan importante participar en las elecciones europeas?

Respuesta: La primera razón es que la participación en las elecciones brinda a los ciudadanos europeos la mejor oportunidad para pronunciarse sobre el diseño del proyecto de integración europeo. La Unión Europea de los próximos años será en gran parte el resultado de las decisiones que se adopten en el Parlamento que elegiremos el próximo 25 de mayo. En segundo lugar, el próximo Parlamento Europeo será el que cuente con mayores competencias de la historia. Ello es consecuencia de los cambios introducidos por el Tratado de Lisboa, que coloca al Parlamento como colegislador en la práctica totalidad de los ámbitos en que la Unión tiene competencia para legislar.

ENGLISH

The first Question: why does European Union exist?

Response: The principal reason of the European process of integration is the need to develop a frame of cooperation, with a few common institutions, which there has allowed to exile the threat of a new confrontation armed between the European States. Thanks to the European Union, his members live today in peace and democracy, and have reached a level very raised of well-being.

The second Question: how does it influence the European Union in ours day after day?

Response: Up to such a point Europe influences in ours day after day that if it must look for a comparison, would say to him that it is something like air that we breathe. More than 80 % of the regulation that governs our daily life has to see with the European Union. The measures that are adopted in the European institutions say to things that they affect us so directly as four fundamental freedoms (persons, goods, services and the capitals), the currency, the employment, the environment, the fight against the organized delinquency or the cooperation to the development. Europe also deals with way distinguished from the education and the formation, especially with the young persons.

Third Question: to what does the Secretary of State devote himself in the European Union?

Response: To the Secretariat of State that I direct there corresponds, first, a labor of coordination of the diverse Departments for the fixation of the position of Spain in the European questions. In addition, like Secretary of State for the Matters of the European Union, I represent Spain in the Advice of Matters Generally, responsibly, among other things, of the preparation and follow-up of the European Advice. Also it is a competition of this Secretariat of State the bilateral relations of Spain with the European countries.

Fourth Question: which are the principal values of the European Union? How will they be reflected in our life?

Response: One of the consubstantial elements of the European Union is that it is a question of a community of values. This way they recognize it the Agreements and for it the values re-dress a cardinal importance in Europe. These values are the democracy, the Constitutional state and the protection of the human rights. The European Union also bases on the responsibility and the solidarity between his members states. It would add that different of his signs of identity it is the Welfare state. All this has a direct impact in our life.

Fifth Question: why is it so important to take part in the European choices?

Response: The first reason is that the participation in the choices offers to the European citizens the best opportunity to declare on the design of the European project of integration. The European Union of next years will be largely the result of the decisions that are adopted in the Parliament that we will choose next May 25. Secondly, the near European Parliament will be the one that possesses major competitions of the history. It is a consequence of the changes introduced by the Agreement of Lisbon, which he places to the Parliament as co-legislatively in the practical totality of the areas in which the Union has competition to legislate.
