Dear friends and colleagues,

Citizens For Europe e.V. invites journalists working on European Union issues to submit short articles, columns, background stories and reportage for the inaugural issue of its journal, “Open Citizenship”. The first issue will deal with European citizenship: what citizenship means in the EU and how Union integration has brought new opportunities and challenges. Potential topics for articles include discrimination, new modes of freedom, bureaucratic problems and feelings of belonging or disintegration from the community that EU expatriates face in their everyday life. Perspectives from different generations and Member States are encouraged.

Articles should be no more than 1,000 words and submitted as Microsoft Word documents by August 15, 2010. You may e-mail us with questions: pettibone [at] citizensforeurope.org.

Feel free to share this information with other interested parties.
