EUMANS is the movement of citizens for democracy and sustainability
Our movement is grounded in the belief that citizens’ participation in shaping transnational, national and local policies can not and should not be constrained to ‘election days’.
Direct actions, nonviolent initiatives, participatory democracy tools, and citizens-led mobilisation can help the European Union, the EU Member States, and the local administrations achieve pressing changes whose realisation is often hindered by the fight for electoral consensus.
Launched in 2019 by Marco Cappato (Italian political activist and former MEP), EUMANS lives and blossoms thanks to the daily commitment of hundreds of activists who invest their time and energies in political actions aimed at reshaping together the mechanism of democratic cooperation.
The initiatives we advocate for and support are rooted in the collaboration with informal groups of citizens, local committees, grassroots movements, civil society organisations, as well as any political party representative sharing our goals, that is:
- Measures for the protection of the Rule of Law and fundamental rights.
- The introduction of Carbon Pricing in the European Union and other sustainable policies based on the UN Sustainable Development Goals, through StopGlobalWarming European Citizens Initiative.
- The development of participatory democracy instruments, including randomly selected citizens assemblies as promoted by the Conference on the Future of Europe and Citizens Take Over Europe, and instruments of collaboration and deliberation.
- The defence of Digital Rights, Science Freedom,Cannabis Legalisation, Political Rights.
- Promotion of medical access to innovative therapies in the European Union and its member states.
EUMANS holds weekly meetings (register here to join us): they are all public and recorded and you can find them on the EUMANS Youtube Channel.
EUMANS aims to develop and implement new collaboration tools, to create a transparent and collaborative space where citizens can be involved on any issue that matters to them.
