Every picture tells a story – what’s yours!?
The European Year of Citizens 2013 has seen the release of the EU Citizenship Report, which was the major report commissioned to identify barriers to citizens using their EU rights. So this year, the EU wants to know, what is your European life like, and if you are using your EU rights.
Remember, you can also always join in the discussions on EU topics you care about on Facebook or Twitter!
