The German Foreign Office and the Goethe-Institut promote the German language as a working and procedural language in the European institutions through the exclusive grant programme Europanetzwerk Deutsch. Various language course programmes and events on socio-political and cultural topics provide the opportunity to improve existing German language skills and to become part of a committed alumni network in Europe. The activities take place both on site and online.
The Europanetzwerk Deutsch wishes you and your families a peaceful Christmas season. An eventful year is coming to an end. From literature and music to film, with a detour to the big questions of world politics – transatlantic relations between the US and the EU – to the smaller but no less important aspects of cross-border cooperation in East Belgium, our activities in Brussels in 2025 covered a wide range of topics.
We would like to thank you for your loyalty to the Europanetzwerk Deutsch and look forward to offering exciting courses and events – for language, networking and culture – again in 2026. Join us for our kick-off event on 23 February 2026 at the Representation of the Free State of Bavaria to the EU, where we will discuss remembrance culture and political debate forums. The occasion and starting point for this will be Grete Weil's novel ‘Der Weg zur Grenze’ (The Way to the Border), written in exile in Amsterdam in 1944 but not published until 2022.
We also cordially invite you to apply for a scholarship place in the EU courses in Germany in 2026.
The newsletter “Europanetzwerk Deutsch” will inform you exclusively about the EU courses’ programme, advanced language trainings and events of the Europanetzwerk Deutsch. Subscribe to newsletter
