Transnational politics has arrived! The movement DiEM25 facilitates a discussion between citizens and citizen-candidates on the first-ever transnational list for the European elections. These candidates are fighting for a Green New Deal with progressive solutions to bring democracy back to Europe! The women and men, nominated in an experiment in grassroots democracy, who will take the programme to the ballot box in May, will answer all your questions and listen to your input.
Our event will not treat participants as passive listeners. Instead it will be about getting into a dialogue. As our venue is a room for inclusion, our event will be the same. After a short introduction from each panelist, we will jump right into the discussion with you in a fishbowl format. Meaning we will have panels consisting of our candidates and you!
Panel I: The connection between local activism and a European election campaign

• Jasper Finkeldey, organising a campus tour bringing the European Spring to the Universities across Germany
• Joanna Bronowicka, organising the #register2vote campaign ahead of the European Parliament elections
• Thomas Kellermann, activist for the “Aktionsbündnis Lichterfelde Süd” campaigning for social housing since 2011

Panel II: Putting a new form of politics into practice in Europe and beyond

• Yanis Varoufakis, campaigning against austerity politics all across Europe for years
• Daniela Platsch, pledging for a new and people-powered approach to democratise Europe
• Bianca Praetorius, connecting technology with democracy, transparency and sustainability

Moderators: Laura Müller and Johannes Fehr
Join us for the exciting time ahead, not stopping on May 26. This European election is only a start fighting for the change we desperately need!
