The ‘Save cruelty free cosmetics’ initiative will close its signature collection at midnight (CET) on 31 August.

Other initiatives closed in the summer: - ‘European EcoScore’ - ‘Civil society initiative for a ban on biometric mass surveillance practices’ (Reclaim Your Face) - ‘Right to Cure’ - ‘ECI for Unconditional Basic Income’

Some initiative organisers have shared the impact and outcomes of their efforts, despite not reaching 1 million signatures. Read about experiences of ‘Reclaim Your Face’, ‘ECI for Unconditional Basic Income’, and ‘Voters Without Borders’. These initiatives examine their political power during the ECI experience and look forward to what happens next.
