Dear Network,

returned at its full speed when you get plenty of news to be added to the
newsletter.
We are very happy to deliver you plenty of opportunities in this issue,
both within and outside AEGEE! Our first AEGEE teams have gather at the
Headoffice for their internal meetings, and you will surely hear from them

We have also been following very closely the current happenings in Europe -
mainly, the current refugee crisis, which has triggered many reactions and
calls for support, and we would like to hear your opinion as well: how can
we, as AEGEE members, contribute to have a meaningful impact in this issue?
Hoping that you will enjoy reading our newsletter and make the most of our

Beyond AEGEE
Refugee crisis - #WeApologise
*"As Europeans, #WeApologise on behalf of our national and European leaders
for their inexcusable lack of coordinated humanitarian aid to the situation
you and thousands of others are in while crossing our borders to escape
war, persecution and poverty".*
AEGEE-Europe supports the open letter and call for action by Social Platfor
<http://aegee.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=7a170c64e0d3990f3f6629d21&id=bb04188a68&e=48c0f6c2cb>m,
together with several other civil society organisations.
We believe that as European citizens *we have the duty to call for and take
action to show solidarity with the refugees*. This need is also reflected
in the statement of principles of AEGEE saying that we value Europe that
‘is built upon the foundations of respect, tolerance and solidarity’.
Moreover, we would like to leave the floor to you: *what do you think AEGEE
members can do* in this situation? You can now share your thoughts at the
Forum
