INVITATION
 
 
 
The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) and the Economic and Social Council of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg invite you to participate in the conference
 
 Road transport:
social dumping and cross-border infrastructure integration
 
It will concentrate on two topics: 
• social dumping in the road transport sector (afternoon of 11 November)
• cross-border infrastructure problems in transport (morning of 12 November)
 
Please consult the draft programme.
 
We expect this to contribute to the discussion of the European Commission's road package (to be published next year), namely by presenting the recently adopted EESC opinion "Internal market of international road freight: social dumping and cabotage". We also aim to debate problems and solutions for the (still existing) problems in cross-border infrastructure. This issue is of particular importance to Luxembourg given its position as a transit country.
 
 
The event will take place on the premises of
the European Court of Auditors, 5 Rue Erasme, L-1615 Luxembourg.
Simultaneous interpreting will be provided between German, English and French.
 
Register as soon as possible following this link.
Deadline: 4 November 2015
 
We very much hope to see you at this event.
Contact us if you have any questions or if you wish to comment on the EESC's opinion.
         
Please distribute this email among your contacts.
 
INVITATION
 
 
Le Comité économique et social européen (CESE) et le Conseil économique et social du Grand-Duché de Luxembourg vous invitent à participer à la conférence sur le thème
 
Transport routier:
dumping social et intégration des infrastructures transfrontalières
 
 L'accent sera mis sur les deux thèmes suivants:
• le dumping social dans le secteur du transport routier (après-midi du 11 novembre);
• les problèmes touchant les infrastructures transfrontalières
(matin du 12 novembre).
 
Veuillez consulter le projet de programme.
 
Cette conférence devrait contribuer au débat sur le train de mesures de la Commission européenne relatif au transport routier (dont la publication est prévue l'année prochaine), notamment grâce à la  présentation de l'avis récemment  adopté par le CESE sur le thème "Le marché intérieur du transport routier international de marchandises: dumping social et cabotage". Nous envisageons également de débattre des problèmes et des solutions aux problèmes (persistants) touchant les infrastructures transfrontalières. Cette question revêt une importance particulière pour le Luxembourg, qui est un pays de transit.
 
 
La manifestation aura lieu dans les locaux de
la Cour des comptes européenne, 5 Rue Erasme, L-1615 Luxembourg.
L'interprétation simultanée sera assurée depuis et vers l'allemand, l'anglais et le français.

Singin' in the Rain | In Aid of Alzheimer's Society


Singin' in the Rain – The London Oratory School – 28 till 31 October 2015

Mayhem Musical Theatre Company is causing a splash this Autumn by bringing the beloved Hollywood Musical Singin' in the Rain to The John McIntosh Arts Centre in Fulham.

Set in 1927, it tells the story, made famous by Gene Kelly and Debbie Reynolds in the iconic 1952 MGM movie, of the first Hollywood musical, when the silver screen found its voice and left silent movies behind.

Don Lockwood is a silent movie star with everything he could want - fame, adoration and a well-publicised 'romance' with his co-star Lina Lamont. But Hollywood is about to change forever. There is rumour of a new kind of film, where the actors actually talk…and sing...and dance. Can Don and the uniquely voiced Lina make the transition or will chorus girl Kathy Selden fulfil her dream of stardom and capture Don's heart along the way?

Ticket booking is available through our box office on 07939 144610 as well as online at www.ticketsource.co.uk/mmtc . Concession rate tickets are priced at £13 with one ticket free for every 10 bought and free tickets for carers. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any further questions on the box office number. Advance booking is very much advised as previous performances sold out well in advance of the event.

We look forward to hearing from you and hope to see you at our splash hit in October!

 

With kind regards

GLOBAL HERITAGE FUND UK INVITES YOU TO

A DEBATE: 'Can what remains of the Saxon communities be preserved as treasured relics in the 21st Century?'  


The sustainability of what remains of the Saxon villages' way of life is questionable in today's world as the communities are increasingly exposed to "modernisation". Can the ancient and modern co-exist with mutual benefits? Is it possible to preserve these villages and traditions not only for the sake of beauty, but also as an added economic resource to the already hard working families that live there? Or is this just poverty tourism in disguise?

Join us to debate these and other questions with our panel of champions of Transylvania, chaired by artist Tim Scott Bolton.

THE PANEL


Tim Scott Bolton – chairing the panel, an artist who leads painting trips to Transylvania, India and the Himalayas, and is working on his forthcoming book, A Brush with Brown, capturing Capability Brown landscapes through an artist's eye. http://www.timscottbolton.co.uk/

William Blacker – celebrated author of Along the Enchanted Way and Chairman of the Anglo Romanian Trust for Traditional Architecture.

Dr. John Akeroyd - renowned botanist and expert on the wildflower meadows of Transylvania.

Nat Page – Director of Fundatia ADEPT, an NGO working to conserve Romania's high nature value farmed landscapes, and to support the small-scale farming communities that created them.

Rosemary Barron – food writer, journalist and author of Transylvania: A Modern Food Story.

Oli Broom – travel writer and Director of The Slow Cyclist, a travel company that leads small groups through the Saxon villages of Transylvania.


The debate coincides with TRANSYLVANIA IN TRANSITION: THE VANISHING VILLAGES OF SAXON ROMANIA,' an exhibition of photographs by Simon Brown

THE ROMANIAN CULTURAL INSTITUTE
1 BELGRAVE SQUARE, LONDON SW1X 8PH

TUESDAY 17th NOVEMBER 2015
Exhibition viewing 6.30pm-7.15pm
Discussion 7.15pm-8.45pm

Tickets are £10 and must be bought in advance at EVENTBRITE LINK.
All proceeds will go towards the development of an app to identify wildflowers in Transylvanian meadows.

Complimentary drinks & nibbles before & after the discussion


GLOBAL HERITAGE FUND UK

Global Heritage Fund UK's mission is to preserve and protect humankind's most important archaeological and cultural heritage sites. The aim is to transform them into economic generators for the people who live around them in a sustainable way. www.globalheritagefund.org.uk
