How to proceed with the European Constitution?
We propose a democratic procedure which should lead to an result accepted by majority of the Europeans. We will spread this text to parliamentarians all over Europe.
European Citizens’ Initiative
The inclusion of the European Citizen’s Initiative in the EU Constitution is a big success for civil society. But the wording of Article 47(4) is quite open to interpretation. Experience in EU member states has shown that citizens’ initiatives, if they are to be workable, need to be citizen-friendly.
European Referendum Campaign
EU Constitution only by fair referendums
This is the common sense of the European Referendum Campaign (ERC). Since 2002 people from all over Europe collaborate to achieve more democracy in Europe. We are supported by about 300 organisations. 97 members of the Convention on the Future of Europe have signed an official appeal demanding referenda.
