« We are asking for the creation of a permanent transnational forum for deliberation and citizens’ participation: a European Citizens' Assembly. In response to the Joint Declaration, we want the upcoming Conference on the Future of Europe to lay the groundwork for such a forum and to commit to designing a high quality, inclusive deliberative process with consistent follow-up action.

The key feature of a Citizens’ Assembly is the direct involvement of citizens, drawn by lot and gathered to represent the cultural identities and the diversity of society - beyond partisan divisions, particular interests and nationalities - in the decision-making process.

The European Citizens’ Assembly (ECA) will complement and strengthen the EU’s representative democracy. It will also be a powerful new participatory pillar  to capitalize on the energy emanating from the European civil society. Recently, transnational grassroots mobilizations of youth on the climate crisis, and of women and oppressed groups for their rights show immense potential to help the EU overcome this century’s global challenges and shape an inclusive society. »
