Good afternoon everyone.  Welcome to the press conference with Executive Vice-President Roxana Mînzatu.  Today, our topic is very timely and very interesting, education package.  The package was agreed this week at the College.  We are presenting it to you today. 

EVP will guide you through the package.  Before we start, I would like to just give a small caveat that around 1:00, there will be an alarm.  No panic, this is just a test.  It's the first Thursday of the month, so this is our way how do we prepare for critical situations.  But you can stay with us and continue after. 

And now, without further ado, the floor is to the Executive Vice-President.  Please.

Thank you so much, and good afternoon already, I think morning, afternoon.  Thank you for being here.  Europe is living through a transformation that will define generations to come.  Artificial intelligence is changing the way in which we work, in which we teach or learn.  Disinformation is really testing our democracies, an aging workforce which is putting pressure on our economic competitiveness, but also on our public services.
