Conference on the Future of Europe: our network’s statements

The Conference on the Future of Europe (CoFoE) came to an end on Europe Day, after one year of deliberations, debates and discussions between citizens, regional, national and European politicians, EU institutions, organised civil society and social partners, all working together to build a common trajectory for the future of the European Union. During its last session, the Plenary of the Conference on the Future of Europe reached consensus on its final recommendations, adopting 49 proposals based on the recommendations from the European citizens’ panels, input from the national panels and events, thousands of contributions recorded on the multilingual digital platform, as well as the discussions in the different Working Groups and the Plenary.

Through our key recommendations for the Conference on the Future of Europe, we supported the ambitious proposals emanating from it, including those that will necessitate changing the Treaties, through potentially a European Convention to make the recommendations of the Conference on the Future of Europe a reality. The European Movement International, through its membership of the Plenary of the Conference, helped shape these recommendations and we are committed to ensure that they are followed by tangible proposals.

This constructive dialogue between citizens, EU institutions, organised civil society, social partners and local regional and national governments that the Conference has instigated in the past 12 months must not stop here. Much is at stake; the European Union needs to deliver on the issues that lie at the heart of citizens’ proposals.
