Princess Laurentien as Chair of the European Commission High Level Group on Literacy
On request of the EU Commisioner for Education,Culture & Youth HE Mrs.A.Vassiliou the Princess was offered and has accepted this new function and is appointed as such from february 1st onwards.The Princess was the first choice for the job for the EU Commissioner due
to her vast experience in the field of Illeteracy/Literacy globally.
This newly founded EU group aims at how the level of literacy for children and adults within the EU can be enhanced/improved and recommandations by the group can be implemented within the EU.The group will consist of experts in the field and the list will be published
by the EU on february 1st,the starting date for the group.
Yet again a Princess of our Royal House is bestowed with a international high level function due to their skills and experience rather
then a title alone.I am darn proud of HRH and wish her and the group all the success.
