In view of the European elections in 2024, the AER calls on regional and local authorities, national governments and European institutions to foster active citizenship by seeking innovation for greater participation of citizens in public decision-making. Thanks to the provision of the necessary deliberative participation tools and instruments, citizens will be able to be meaningfully involved in the democratic life of their communities and resulting in more democratic governance.
Building upon the achievements of the Task Force on Democracy, the AER remains committed to ensuring wide and equitable participation of both women and men in political decision-making processes, while also recognising the crucial role that young people can play in bolstering democracy throughout Europe.
