The European Union plays a large role in its citizens lives. Many of the
discussed topics, like austerity, migration or unemployment, and of the
laws made directly impact the life of everyday people. But where are these
discussions and decisions happening? How can the european citizens
influence them? Is voting a method of choice?

When you want these questions to be answered and you want to discuss their
answers then the conference “Representation Needs Participation: European
Elections” is the right place for you to go! AEGEE-Salerno, in
collaboration with the CEWG and supported by AAFB, is delighted to offer
you this event for important current discussions about the european
election system.

For three days you will have the chance to learn about different kinds of
electoral systems in Europe, reflect about their advantages and
disadvantages aided by qualified experts and through interactive sessions.
The focus will be on pan-european party elections as an alternative to the
current system. This year the proposal to introduce pan-european parties at
European elections was made by Emmanuel Macron, the French president. Could
this be a way to make the European elections more interesting and even more
relevant for citizens? And how should it be done exactly? Apply and find
out!!!
