Based on our experience, we believe that we prison visitors need to come out into the open, so that our commitment as citizens in the world of prisons may find it rightful place with European Institutions. So we need your help once again: we intend to bring together associations from Belgium, Germany, France, Netherlands, in an International NGO. We will then apply to the Council of Europe to join the INGO Conference. Your vote will be precious to us. Thank you!

Community-Led initiatives provide innovative and inclusive responses to the housing crisis, to demographic change and social inequalities in European cities. While housing cooperatives, Land Trusts, CoHousing groups and others are connected through local networks, a coordinated action at the European level is required to strengthen the movement and develop better public policies. This workshop provides a platform of exchange for key actors during the EXPERIMENTDAYS 17 in Berlin.

In future, we want to see more community gardens in public space in Europe and beyond. We belief they make our cities green and social. Each of us has gained so far diverse experiences and faces various challenges that are valuable for the others, e.g. when working together with administration, communicating with neighbourhood initiatives or getting access to public space. With our dialogue, we look forward to install a sustainable knowledge transfer between France, Germany and Poland.

The idea is to organize a meeting between young people completing volunteer work from different countries / cultures and lived an almost similar experience (the French Service Civique or German IJFD or European EVS ). The idea is to bring these young people with this shared experience (a year of volunteering). These young people have not had the opportunity to meet between-them without our partner organizations would force this youth exchange.

Will we get old alone? In Europe, between 5 and 20% of people over the age of 60 feel alone, so 1.5 million people in France, 2.5 in England ... Loneliness and isolation are increasing among people over 75 years of age. To face this challenge, a committed civil society is needed to recreate relationships with the oldest. Our project is to organize a large conference on this theme, to give to more citizens the opportunity to engage themselves in the fight against isolation of the elderly.

There’s nothing to do in the coutryside? Young people are not politically involved? On the contrary: this June 12 international volunteers will meet in the middle of the French countryside and move by bike from village to village to work on renovation projects and create events that bring people together. This project allows young citizens from all over the world to discover local politics in the countryside and show in which way anybody can get actively involved.
