Brussels, 15/10/2012 (Agence Europe) - On 15 October, 20 young people of 20 years of age received their prizes for the creative competition “Generation 1992”. Launched in April, this competition called upon young Europeans born in 1992 (the year in which the European single market was launched) to present what this large open market meant to them (EUROPE10592). Three hundred and eighty young people from the 27 member states ended up taking part in the competition. The 20 winning projects (four winners for each of the five categories) were presented at the inaugural event of the Single Market Week, held at the European Parliament in Brussels this Monday. Commissioner Michel Barnier, who is responsible for the single market, and MEP Toine Manders (ALDE, Netherlands) awarded the winners with their prizes, which included a placement within the European institutions, at the award ceremony.
