The Institute for Politics and Society with the cooperation of EUNIC is holding a debate called What if... someone held you back from choosing where you want to go and when?

Freedom of movement is one of the founding principles of the EU and it is already taken for granted by many. It allows us to make new friends, gather experiences across the borders and broaden our horizons. This right, however, does not only mean you can travel or move freely, it is fundamental for cooperation, encouraging tolerance and understanding among people of different cultures. It can help to break down harmful stereotypes, prejudices and to build solidarity between people and governments of different countries.

“One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.” – Henry Miller

“To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries.” – Aldous Huxley
