Hey everyone! My name is Danilo, the current president of the UCL European Society, and I hope to be your president next year too! :) I have worked very hard this year in a very small committee to create fun events for our members, such as collabs, picnics, pub events and the UCL EuroVision event (coming later in March), and next year I will work even harder in ensuring that events happen more often and are very enjoyable. I have made many friends through this society and many members have told me the same, and I hope to continue helping members making valuable friends next year as well! One thing that I have piloted this year and will start next year properly are "Cultural Wednesdays" sessions - where a different European Society teaches about their language and culture (e.g. Italian Society teaches about Italian, Austrian Society teachers about Austrian culture and its language etc). I also will continue to help promote the amazing European Clubnights and want to help revive helping members write for the Eureka Magazine. I also want to work with the Endangered Languages Society (which I founded this year) to offer language classes in those languages (such as Cornish and Breton). I have been on the committee of many many societies this year and this has given me a lot of experience + skills and connections for collabs next year! I will ensure that all members are happy, supported and listened to, and that the society is the very best it can be!
I believe in a European identity and I am determined to build a community that will reflect it. As President, my main goal is to further establish the European Society as a space for discussion and growth through:
- panels with prominent figures in EU institutions
- networking events
- Socials (cookouts, clubnights, and more)
- Collaboration with other societies at UCL and beyond
Further, I want to revive the Eureka Magazine, which has not been published for the past year and create a space for high-quality articles on European politics, economics and culture.
It is fundamental to construct a strong network during the short time we spend at university and I will ensure that being part of the European Society will be one of your highlights.
