The European Budget: Stronger Together: A Campaign to Discover Europe Right in Our Own Backyard

Since September 21, the European Commission’s Representation in Luxembourg has been rolling out the campaign “The European Budget — Stronger Together.”

Its goal: to show, through five projects co-funded by the European Union in Luxembourg, how European funding tangibly improves our daily lives. The City of Differdange is supporting this initiative and invites its citizens to learn about it and share it.

Europe in Everyday Life, Through Five Projects

Urban agriculture, cross-border culture, secure quantum communications, online safety for young people, and electric mobility: the campaign highlights initiatives relevant to everyday life that illustrate how the European Union supports innovation, cooperation, and solutions that meet citizens’ real needs.

The five featured projects:

  • GROOF — is experimenting with new forms of urban agriculture in Bettembourg;
  • GRACE — facilitates access to culture and artistic collaborations in the Greater Region;
  • LUQCIA — develops the secure communication technologies of tomorrow;
  • BEE SECURE — supports children, young people, and parents in using digital technologies more safely;
  • Klimabonus Mobilitéit — supports the transition to electric mobility.

This campaign is aimed in particular at young professionals and families in Luxembourg’s urban and multilingual environments—an audience with which Differdange fully identifies.

A campaign visible everywhere

From late September through mid-October, the advertising campaign will run across various platforms: Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, as well as digital ads on RTL.lu, RTL Infos, RTL Today, and Essentiel.lu, content created in collaboration with content creators and influencers, a presence on the Komoot app, outdoor advertising, and advertorials in L’Essentiel. On-the-ground activations will continue through early November.
