January 14, 2019 Norge og Europa: Hvilken fremtid vil du ha?
I 2019 er det 25 år siden EØS-avtalen trådte i kraft. Det betyr at de som er født på midten av nittitallet og senere ikke kan huske et liv uten denne avtalen. 14. januar inviterte NUPI til debatt på Kulturhuset i Oslo. Hit kom utenriksministeren og fire unge stemmer for å diskutere EØS og vår tilknytning til Europa.
Hvordan er det å skulle videreføre en avtale som du egentlig ikke vet så mye om, og som du ikke har fått være med på å bestemme? Er det på tide med en ny EØS-debatt?
