Today we are in Brussels, at the European Commission, attending the annual gathering of the European Citizens’ Initiative Network as ECI Ambassadors.

During the meeting, we will exchange ideas and practical tools to make use of one of the most advanced instruments for participatory democracy worldwide: the European Citizens’ Initiative (ECI). This mechanism enables citizens to invite the European Commission to consider legislative proposals on issues that matter to them.

From a single signature to concrete EU level actions, the ECI is a tool that empowers individuals to turn their ideas into potential European policies and rules. By strengthening knowledge and skills around this instrument, participants can enhance their role as active citizens and contribute to shaping the future of the European Union.
