Hi,

remember that one very simple, but radical, idea: to democratise Europe?
Well, the DiEM25 initiative, that embarks upon this project invites
everybody, who is interested to join to an assembly, which will take place
in Rome – 23 March 2016. Below please find more information about it.

Here also a text that Berliner Gazette published in response to the
inaugural assembly in Berlin, and which is now available in English on
"openDemocracy":

Kind regards,

DiEM25 Assembly: Transparency in Europe Now!

Dear Member,

As Europeans, we are too often forced to choose between two dreadful
options: retreat into the cocoon of our nation-states, or surrender to the
Brussels democracy-free zone.

But we know an alternative exists, and you have joined DiEM25 to
participate to its simple yet radical objective: to democratise Europe by
2025 at the latest.

It is now time for our first pan-European Campaign TRANSPARENCY IN EUROPE
NOW!, which will aim at demanding that all EU-level decision-making be
exposed to European citizens’ gaze. We shall demand that meetings of the
European Council, ECOFIN, Eurogroup, FTT, ESM etc. become accessible to
Europeans. Additionally, we plan to expose the opacity of decision-making
processes that have a capacity to ban democracy for a very, very long time
(e.g. the current TTiP negotiations).

We cordially invite you to the DiEM25 Assembly: Transparency in Europe Now!

which will take place in Rome – 23 March 2016.

not ready yet (apologies…), members like you have created many places of
discussion on Facebook, Reddit, Consider.it and blogs.

: donations will be used to cover the cost of the event, including live
streaming and simultaneous translations in order to open the conversation
to the widest possible audience. If costs are covered, anything extra will
be invested in DiEM25’s next events.
