Welcome to #PowerShifts HELLO and, finally, WELCOME to the “Power Shifts – Reflecting Europe’s Energy”! Right now you are reading the first introduction issue of the project’s Newsletter generated by the Steering Group (SG), the project’s internal Think Tank. A Newsletter will be published once per quarter until the end of the project December 2017! “Power Shifts – Reflecting Europe’s Energy” is a project by the European Youth Parliament and the Schwarzkopf Foundation in cooperation with the RWE Foundation.
