In the run up to the 2024 European election campaign, Civil Society Europe and Social Platform have launched a campaign, “Civil Society for EU”, which advocates for better recognition, protection and support to civil society in the EU.
The campaign has a dedicated website and a manifesto which has been endorsed by more than 170 civil society organisations and networks. The manifesto calls on decision-makers to reverse the trends of shrinking civic space and limited opportunities of dialogue between civil society and policy makers, through the adoptions of two concrete policy measures: adopting a Civil Society Strategy and concluding a Civil Dialogue Agreement.Alzheimer Europe has endorsed the manifesto. The campaign website and manifesto can be found at: www.civilsocietyforeu.eu
