Thank you...
Our thanks to our host for the evening Quaestor Marc Angel (S&D, Luxembourg) and to Mariam Zaidi for being our master of ceremonies.
We would also like to extend our thanks to our distinguished judges who had the unenviable task of deciding the winners.
We thank all those people across the EU who took time to nominate someone for an award. Without whose nominations the awards would not be possible.
To our partner organisations who have supported the event we also say a big ‘thank you’.
We would like to give special thanks to every MEP, APA and Parliamentary staffer, whether or not they were nominated, shortlisted or were a winner, for their dedication, hard work and support of European democracy. Thank you!
