Projeto NOTE
NOTE stands for the “Network of Organizations and Towns for the European Elections”, supported by CERV Programme, is an initiative designed to foster active European citizenship and bolster democratic participation with the focus on the 2024 European Parliament Elections. It brings together local governments and civil society organizations from 12 EU Member States under the umbrella of the CERV programme, creating a thematic transeuropean network. The project spans over 18 months, targeting the engagement of young citizens, aged 18-35, who have been identified as pivotal in increasing voter turnout and participation in previous European Elections (2019). Through NOTE, these towns and organizations collaborate to facilitate a deeper understanding of the EU’s democratic values and the significant role that citizens can play in shaping European policies. NOTE operates with a strategic focus on three core objectives:
- the creation of a robust network aimed at active citizenship,
- bringing young people into close contact with EU institutions and parliamentarians,
- developing practical tools to ensure free, informed, and fair elections across Europe.
The network employs innovative engagement methods like Street Debates and EP simulation activities, alongside the production of informative Podcasts that aim to demystify the EU’s institutional workings and promote an informed electorate ready to participate in the 2024 elections and broader, i.e. in political processes.
