'Cities4Europe - Europe for citizens'

It is time to change the way politics is done in Europe. A few months ahead of the European Parliament elections, our campaign brings people and policymakers together to explore new ways of involving citizens in decision-making. We aim to launch a process that promotes societies where people come first, and where trust between citizens and public authorities is strengthened. At a time when Europe is striving to retain its legitimacy and relevance in the face of growing disillusionment and Euroscepticism, cities can provide a critical link with citizens. Cities are crucial in shaping the future of Europe. By partnering up with pan-European movements, and mobilising our network of Europe's largest cities, we now want to take the next step and actively demonstrate what citizens and cities can do and are already doing at local level to create together our common future. Ultimately, 'Cities4Europe - Europe for Citizens' wants to inspire cities and other levels of government, including the EU institutions, to pursue mechanisms and tools that engage citizens in policy making, strengthening new forms of democracy across Europe.
