The European Movement (EM) is organizing a celebration of the 60th anniversary of the Congress of Europe in The Hague on the 23-24 May 2008.

As part of this unique event, the European Civil Society Forum will bring representatives of organized civil society together with all major European political leaders to discuss the future of Europe.
A preparatory session is already scheduled in Brussels on the

20th February 2008, from 15.00 to 19.00 at the
ING Headquarters, Avenue Marnix 24, B-1000 Brussels, Building I.

At this meeting, we will present the concept of the public consultation to be organised as part of the European Civil Society Forum, as well defining the methodology of the consultation and the follow up. We will also appoint moderators and rapporteurs to oversee the process, in order to ensure as transparent and successful an event as possible.

Attached is the programme of the Congress of Europe, including details on the events of the Forum.
