Recommendations and reports
After six months of intense work (September 2021 – February 2022), the four European Citizens’ Panels have finalised their recommendations for the Future of Europe:
- Panel 1 - 48 recommendations on "A stronger economy, social justice and jobs / Education, culture, youth and sport / Digital transformation"
- Panel 2 - 39 recommendations on "European democracy / values and rights, rule of law, security"
- Panel 3 - 51 recommendations on "Climate change, environment / Health"
- Panel 4 - 40 recommendations on the "EU in the world / Migration"
Next steps include discussions in Conference plenaries, with the final outcome being presented in a report to the Joint Presidency. The three institutions will examine swiftly how to follow up effectively to this report, each within their own sphere of competence and in accordance with the Treaties.
About the conference
|
People need to be at the very centre of all our policies. My wish is therefore that all Europeans will actively contribute to the Conference on the Future of Europe and play a leading role in setting the European Union’s priorities. It is only together that we can build our Union of tomorrow. |
It is part of President von der Leyen’s pledge to give Europeans a greater say on what the EU does and how it works for them. All Europeans - whoever they are and wherever they are - can take part.
The Conference aims to reflect our diversity, and to bring Europe beyond its capital cities, reaching every corner of the EU, strengthening the link between Europeans and the institutions that serve them. It does so through a multitude of Conference-events and debates organised across the EU, as well as through an interactive multilingual digital platform. Young people in particular are encouraged to take part and share their ideas. European, national, regional and local authorities, as well as civil society and other organisations can also organise events to involve as many people as possible.
