United in Diversity

4/5/2000

Following a competition to find a motto for Europe, in which 80,000 young people participated, a jury chaired by former European Commission President Jacques Delors selects the winner: “United in diversity”. The motto shows that Europeans have united to form the EU with the aim of working together for peace and prosperity, while at the same time benefiting from Europe’s cultural wealth, traditions, and languages.
