Once a year, the organisers of national history competitions gather at EUSTORY network meetings (formerly General Assemblies) to discuss network issues.

At this year's network meeting in Warsaw, hosted by KARTA Center, 35 participants from 22 countries came together for an intensive exchange of ideas and projects.
35 staff members of national EUSTORY History Competitions used the network’s digital kick-off event of 2022 for a joint reflection of impacts of the war in Ukraine and other current challenges on their work.
During the EUSTORY Network’s first virtual annual meeting, EUSTORY Competition Organisers not only shared digital innovations from their national projects but also focused on (post)colonial monuments that polarise.
At this year's network meeting in Málaga, hosted by the Spanish foundation Real Maestranza de Caballería de Ronda (RMR), the focus was on dealing with the legacy of the Franco dictatorship. The conference programme was developed together with Körber-Stiftung.
The Estonian President Kersti Kaljulaid, patron of the Estonian national history competition, received representatives of the EUSTORY Network. The Estonian history competition, one of the founding members of EUSTORY, kindly hosted this year’s Annual Network Meeting in Tallinn together with Körber-Stiftung.
Which competences do young Europeans need to research historical sources and information for historical projects on the internet? And how does the role of archives change in the progressing digitalisation? During this year’s EUSTORY-Network meeting, which took place from 22 - 25 March 2018 in Turin and was hosted by the Fondazione per la Scuola, the organisers from more than 20 national history competitions discussed these questions and the relevance of archives for their work.
