CHANGEMAKERS
FOR EUROPEAN DEMOCRACY
Our Mission
Voting is not just a right, it’s your chance to shape the future!
In today’s world, where trust in the European Union may be shaky, and young voices often feel left out of the conversation, seven dynamic NGOs from across Europe have come together to create a positive change.
Did you know that in the last European Parliament elections in 2019, only 50.66% of eligible voters actually cast their ballots?
To tackle this challenge head-on, TDM 2000 International (Italy), TDM 2000 Estonia (Estonia), Global Citizens Academy (Lithuania), TDM Malta (Malta), TDM Portugal (Portugal), Active Zone Outdoor (Cyprus), and SIEDAS (Slovakia) have launched the ‘Changemakers for European Democracy’ project!
With this project, we aim to boost European democracy and citizenship on a continental level. We want to create a political community of active European and transnational citizens and make a real impact on European policy.
Join us in making a difference and having your say in shaping a brighter future for all of us!
