The President of the EFAy, Rhisiart Tal-e-bot, was invited to speak at an annual event organised by EFAy members Joves d'Esquerra Nacionalista ( www.jen.cat ) on Saturday 17th November 2007.

The Escola Tardor Jaume Serra event is organised by JEN every Autumn and guests are invited to speak on different topics. This year Rhisiart was invited to speak about "A Europe of the Free Peoples" and the position of the EFAy.

Other topics that were discussed included group psychology, ecological agriculture and the situation of the Catalan culture and language, with experts from these fields invited along to speak. The two day event was also an opportunity for members of JEN to come together socially for a fun and educational experience. Each year the school is held in a different venue and this year it was held near Caretara de Santa Maria, to the north of Palma de Mallorca.

Speaking at the event, Rhisiart said:
"The EFAy is important, because it gives young people a channel in which to express themselves politically... The EFAy, as a political community of young Europeans, aims to represent the interests of those who believe that the 'march of a nation' towards greater autonomy, self government or even independence should not have its boundaries. EFAy members represent the future of Europe and one day I hope that we will look back and not only feel proud of what has been achieved, but that we were also part of it".
