Present Future of Europe

• Historical Archives of the European Union

The European Parliament Former Members Association and the Historical Archives of the European Union organise the "Present Future of Europe" event which is divided into three parts: the "Present Future of Europe" exhibition where some significant documents of the 4 major European Political Foundations are exhibited; the high-level conference “The Future of Europe starts today” focused on the current debate concerning the “Conference of the future of Europe”; the publication of the documents collected in a book with the contributions of several important personalities.

The event hinges on the high-level conference "The Future of Europe starts Today" where the proposal formulated by the FMA at the "Conference on the Future of Europe" is presented to the political, academic world and, above all, to European citizens. Taking into account that the proposal is the result of the work carried out by the prestigious members of the ad hoc "Reflection Group". The text stems from a fruitful collaboration also matured during a cycle of events and contains five general guidelines for the future of Europe, with ten concrete proposals that highlight the direction to follow in which the European Union should orient itself. The proposal considers that the conference should focus on general issues relating to European integration; on how to better protect the rule of law; on the methods to be used for the EU to become increasingly efficient; on how it can increase its capacity to act and achieve what citizens expect. All this without excluding the possibility of modifying the Treaty.
