The photography competition for young Europeans "Europe@Home: Europe starts in our communities" depicts European Integration through the eyes of young people in the union aged 15 to 28.
The jury, in which EUobserver was a member, chose from amongst some 200 contributions from 22 member states, and in the end decided to honour 28-year-old Marta Arribas from Madrid, Spain, with the first prize, for her artistic snapshot of European mobility and travel.
Isidoro Gottardo, president of the EPP-ED group in the Committee of Regions said: "A picture can truly tell a thousand words and it is obvious from the entries how interesting it is to view the European Union through the eyes of our next generation."
