Elections in the United States

Studio Europa Maastricht is a centre of expertise for Europe-related debate and research. Founded in 2018 and supported by the partners of the 'Maastricht, Working on Europe' programme: Maastricht University, the Province of Limburg and the City of Maastricht. The team examines Europe, explores the Treaty of Maastricht, and engages the public in the debate on European integration. Or as Studio Europa Maastricht itself puts it: 'We are #WorkingonEurope.' This also includes the influence of foreign relationships on Europe and the European Union. Needless to say, Studio Europa keenly observes the US elections.
