It was great representing the Eurogroup as part of the Troika team. Thanks for this challenging exercise, filled with insightful debates @gpapak@STGEUI !
How does one negotiate a 110b loan agreement and the MoU that goes with it? A simulation of the 2010 negotiation between Greece and the EU/IMF as part of #TheCrisisSeminar course for our second year Master’s students at @STGEUI @EUI_EU - congrats to all involved!
@Mbali_Bloom also says that people should participate. People are meant to engage with policy documents to see how policy will work for them. An example is if you're a woman & you want to make input on a policy that affects your access to healthcare.
#WomensMonth
The conversation starts off by explaining public policy. @Mbali_Bloom talks about how policy is for the people. Policy communications what government will do for you and what this will mean for your community. Everyone should have access to it.
#WomensMonth

At this moment in South Africa, energy is the difference between life and death when a women is giving birth, when someone is on life- support, accesing emergency services…the list goes on, even from an economic or social perspective the process of development is hindered
We are part of the solution.
What's your contribution towards resolving the current energy crisis? Where do you place your skills to contribute solutions for sustainable energy? What is your individual responsibility in reducing the current load?
We all have something to give.
