NOTE stands for the “Network of Organizations and Towns for the European Elections”. It is an initiative of 12 towns from 10 EU Member States in the framework of the programme CERV. We represent citizens, local governments and civil society organisations from: Italy, Romania, Bulgaria, Poland, Portugal, Croatia, Greece, Spain, Lithuania, Belgium and Germany. The project activities are planned for 18 months, from January 2023 to June 2024, aligned with the next Elections to the European Parliament in May 2024. The main goal of the project is the promotion of informed participation in the European Elections.

Read the report from the project Work Package 5Citizens Voices on Sustainable Development Goals, organised by the project partner from Portugal – Fundao Municipality. This Work Package was executed in four connected parts between December 2023 and Jauary 2024. The aim of the events, which together constitute the WP3, was to bring young people closer to European Parliamentarians and EU institutions in view of the next European Elections in 2024, to discuss participatory democracy and the European Elections on the local level.
