The 'Conference on the Future of Europe' has produced many citizens proposals. Are they being implemented to shape the future of the EU? Or was it just citizen participation for the cameras? With the 'Conference on the Future of Europe', the EU has taken a novel step towards more citizen participation. Will this course be continued? And if so, how? With Damian Boeselager, we want to talk about the goals, possibilities, and limits of citizen participation. And what needs to happen now for citizen participation to succeed.

LET'S MAKE EUROPE A
BETTER PLACE

United in diversity – that’s the motto we share at MeetEU! Since April 2020, we have been organizing weekly events with Members of the European Parliament, European Commission representatives, EU activists and scientists. At our events, participants can discuss their ideas directly with decision-makers and experts.

Our mission is to bring EU citizens closer to EU politics. Our event participants join from all over Europe. We all come from different backgrounds. But once a week, we come together with one goal: to share perspectives and make Europe a better place.

MeetEU is a project run by volunteers
