ECR Study Days in Warsaw; Event: book presentation - Allah has no business in my classroom

ECR Study Days in Warsaw

From Tuesday to Friday, ECR MEPs will gather for study days in Warsaw, Poland. Politicians, policy experts and leading voices will come together to explore and discuss some of the most pressing challenges facing the European Union today: The rule of law in relation to freedom of expression and the EU’s core values in practice; the European Green Deal and a new wave of potential farmer protests; protecting external borders amid the weaponisation of migration and increasing migratory pressures; the chances of making the EU competitive again; the need for modern transport infrastructure in new member states and the example of the Central Communication Port (CPK); internet freedom and regulation; and whether there is still room for the family in the European social model. The study days will serve as a platform for cooperation between those who advocate a more pragmatic, conservative approach in Europe, aiming for an EU that focuses on doing less but doing it better.

Event: book presentation - Allah has no business in my classroom

On Tuesday, ECR MEP Assita Kanko together with EPP MEP François-Xavier Bellamy, will host a book presentation of the book “Allah has no business in my classroom” by Jean-Pierre Martin and Laurence D’Hondt. The book addresses the issue of radical Islam in schools. The initial presentation in Brussels had to be cancelled due to threats against bookstore staff. The authors will be present at the presentation, which is an opportunity to engage in critical conversation, uphold freedom of expression and reject intimidation that seeks to silence vital dialogue. Interpretation will be provided in English, Dutch and French. Link to the events website here.
