On 9 May, Europe Day is celebrated. 2025, in particular, marks the 75th anniversary of the Schuman Declaration, which laid the foundations for today’s European Union (preceded by the ECSC in 1951 and the EEC in 1957) and “paved the way for an unprecedented era of prosperity, peace, democracy, solidarity and cooperation in Europe”. To mark the occasion – according to the EU institutions –, many events will take place in EU member states and non-EU countries alike. The EU institutions will open their doors and invite citizens to visit their premises, discover their work and “engage in a wide range of educational and entertaining activities”. Landmark buildings and monuments across the globe will be illuminated in the EU colours, while a special Europe Day programme is planned for Expo 2025 in Osaka, Japan. “In times of global uncertainty, Europe remains an anchor of stability – a place of opportunity and protection for its citizens. The EU and its institutions are working towards the common goal of ensuring prosperity and competitiveness, guaranteeing our security and defence, while upholding the fundamental values Europeans care about”.
