The head of the Differdange EDC
Carlos Terán is an architect, urban planner, and linguist with extensive experience in Europe. He has also worked at the European Commission, which has allowed him to become familiar with European Union programs and initiatives, including those related to the EACEA (Education, Audiovisual, and Culture Executive Agency), such as Erasmus+.
Today, he is delighted to assist and support visitors in discovering the opportunities offered by Europe, be it for citizens, students, or teachers.
A polyglot, Carlos is enthusiastic about welcoming and interacting with people in six different languages, while continuing to learn Luxembourgish.
