European Citizens Brotherhoods Express and Nurture the Europe's Future they Want

ongoing

"EUNITY represents the combination of ""EU"" and ""Unity,"" encapsulating the project's core mission of fostering European unity through citizen-driven engagement. EUNITY aims to bring together citizens from diverse cultural, and socio-economic backgrounds to actively shape the future of the European Union. Participants are drawn from six European countries: Greece, Slovenia, Croatia, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Italy. EUNITY aims to address key contemporary issues as euroscepticism, socio-economic inequality, climate action, and the role of youth in shaping EU policies. EUNITY promotes a forward-looking, inclusive vision for Europe's future, centered around a shared sense of European identity and belonging. EUNITY is organized around a Debatable Citizens' Conference ""Let’s Shape Our Tomorrow Together, Validating Our Citizens’ Voices for Europe’s Future"". The core objective is to host a three-day forum where citizens from towns across Europe can engage in meaningful debates, and cultural exchanges. The 4 thematic pillars guiding EUNITY are: 1. Europe as a Peace and Democracy Project; 2. Addressing Socio-Economic Inequality and Social Cohesion; 3. Climate Participatory Action and 4. Youth Renewed Cross-Towns Policy Agenda. EUNITY is committed to ensuring broad-based participation from diverse segments of society. The project places a strong emphasis on inclusivity, targeting different demographic groups to foster a sense of shared European identity. The target groups include European towns and communities, European citizens of all ages with a focus on youth, women and non-binary individuals, and local and regional authorities. One of the central outcomes of EUNITY is the Citizens' Brotherhoods Manifesto, a policy brief that will be produced following the three-day event, reflecting the collective voices of the participants. EUNITY is expected to involve 210 invited participants and 100 local participants, meaning in total 310 gender-balanced participants."
