Is it EU funded or not? 🟢🔴

Let’s see if attendees at this year’s Electric Picnic know how Europe’s budget impacts daily life in Ireland and across Europe.

The European Parliament is currently working to make sure that the next EU long-term budget invests in what matters from 2028 onwards. As the EU’s democratically elected body, it plays a key part in deciding on the EU budget and how it is used.

🏖 Ag taisteal san Eoraip an samhradh seo?

Don't forget one of the easiest things to pack: your European Health Insurance Card (EHIC)!

The EHIC provides access to urgent healthcare during temporary stays abroad under the same conditions and at the same cost as people insured in the country you're visiting.

💻 An mbíonn a fhios agat nuair a bhíonn IS agat? Can you spot AI?

Starting this month, under new EU rules, anyone using generative AI professionally must be transparent about:
• AI content that could be mistaken for real
• text in the public interest that hasn't been reviewed by a human
• chatbots interacting with users

From major brands to content creators and public organisations, disclosure obligations apply to everyone. There are some exemptions, but the principle is simple: transparency comes first.

Wondering how to comply? The EU has created labelling icons to help ➡️ https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/eu-icons-labelling-ai-generated-content

Is ionad seasmhachta é an tAontas Eorpach i ndomhan atá lán d’éiginnteacht gheopholaitiúil.

🇪🇺⚖️ Is é sin dearcadh 75 % de shaoránaigh an Aontais, de réir an tsuirbhé Eorabharaiméadair is déanaí ón bParlaimint arna fhoilsiú inniu. Is méadú 8 bpointe céatadáin é sin ó fhómhar 2025. Ina theannta sin, is mian leis na saoránaigh go mbeadh an tAontas i riocht gníomhú: is mian le 73 % díobh go mbeadh tuilleadh modhanna ag an Aontas chun aghaidh a thabhairt ar dhúshláin dhomhanda. 🌍
