Why we care
Our involvement in the EU elections is not just a civic duty; it is an investment in our own future. By participating in the democratic process, we contribute to shaping policies that directly influence the quality of opportunities and mobility available to us. In essence, our vote is a voice that advocates for the continuity and enhancement of the EU projects that have become integral to our generation's growth and prosperity.
As European citizens, we are granted the invaluable freedom of movement, a privilege intricately regulated by the decisions made in the EU Parliament. Recognizing the significance of our participation in these elections is paramount, as they directly shape the policies that govern our ability to cross European borders seamlessly without any restrictions.
Participation in the EU elections is a direct avenue for us to shape the course of our collective futures. By exercising our right to vote, we not only contribute to the selection of representatives who will influence policies but also assert our stake in the decisions that will impact our lives and those of generations to come. We are inheriting the Europe of now, so demand a better Europe for the future.
Our generation's concern for the EU Elections stems from the urgent need to address climate change through collective action. By actively participating in the democratic process, we contribute to the formulation of policies that prioritize environmental sustainability and ensure a healthier planet for future generations.
Young voices bring a breath of fresh air to the political arena, challenging outdated norms and fostering a more inclusive and forward-thinking society. By actively participating in the democratic process, we dismantle the notion that politics is an exclusive domain reserved for a certain demographic. Our engagement not only amplifies our concerns but also strengthens the democratic fabric of the EU
EU Law holds a primacy over national laws – even national constitutions – so every legislation passed by the EU Parliament is directly affecting our everyday lives:
Quality of education;
Protection of cultural heritage;
European health insurance card;
Travelling standards and safety;
Sustainability and Environment.
The EU, as a supranational entity, addresses issues that transcend national boundaries—climate change, economic stability, social justice, and technological advancements, to name a few. As global citizens, our involvement in the EU elections allows us to advocate for policies that reflect our values and aspirations on an international scale.
