Jean Monnet in the USA Collaborative Lecture Series

The Jean Monnet in the U.S.A. Series (#JMintheUS) is an initiative of several EU-funded Universities across the United States. The world has shifted to virtual events, making new kinds of collaborations possible. Co-sponsors of the #JMintheUS initiative can better share programming related to the European Union and European Union studies, increasing access to more communities throughout the country.

The following events are open to all audiences. Details will be updated as they become available, so please check this page regularly. Virtual attendance may be limited, so early registration is recommended. For more information about the events and details about how to register, follow the link to see information on the primary organizer’s website.
