Activities

Main EU Legislative Proposals: the European Movement International will work to keep constant contact with its partners in civil society, trade unions, employer organisations, businesses, sectoral interests, academia, political parties, local authorities and the media, in order to further develop cooperation. We will equally strive to develop new partnerships facilitating the network, especially in the regions where the cooperation is still underdeveloped or non-existent. The aim of the European Movement International is to further develop itself as an essential aggregating pole of European-minded civil society and the aforementioned stakeholders, both at national and pan-European level. In order to fulfil this objective, our organisation builds upon its reputation while improving its image and efficiency as a space for dialogue, exchange and co-operation. The content-based activities will be developed on the basis of the European Movement International’s Strategic Priorities for 2018-2020 and in lead with the key developments in EU. Since 2016, the European Movement International organises its work around a triangle composed by communications, events and policy and the International Office plans to continue this focus throughout 2019. Coordinated by the International Office, the three new Political Committees, which operate in line with the Strategic Priorities, will be closely involved in the development of policy positions and related activities of the European Movement International. These Political Committees will meet in the fringes of the Statutory Meetings and whenever deemed necessary, and are open to all Members. The work of the European Movement International covers the areas of Citizen participation and transparency; Fundamental rights and European values; Migration, integration, and freedom of movement; EMU and Own Resources; European Pillar of Social Rights; Youth and Skills; Sustainability; Brexit; Foreign affairs, security and defence cooperation; Enlargement; Globalisation and trade; Peace-keeping. In 2019, the European agenda will be dominated by the European elections, the withdrawal of the UK from the EU as well as the priorities of the Romanian and Finnish presidencies, the work programme of the Commission and work areas of the European Parliament.
Communication Activities: We will continue to develop our communication tools, which are crucial for both visibility and capacity-building. The website allows for a greater flow of information, with more items being posted and a greater flexibility in the types of content that can be used – with a greater focus on visuals. Members are encouraged to share their news and events to be featured on the website. The information posted on the website is also regularly disseminated via the European Movement International’s social media channels and Members’ newsletter to allow for greater sharing of different member organisation’s activities from across the network. The European Movement International will continue to develop its newsletters and communication platforms, some focusing on particular EU policy areas and events, as well as wider communication outreach. In the context of capacity-building and communication, specific services will be also offered to the Members in terms of information sharing, notably through weekly policy updates, weekly institutional calendars, and bi-annual semester calendars. The European Movement International will continue to organise briefing events, conferences and seminars on diverse European topics in line with the current European agenda and the European Movement International’s policy priorities. Emphasis will be given to the European elections (for details see ‘European Elections 2019’) These events will not only take place in Brussels, but also Europe-wide, in cooperation with its National Councils and International Associations.
