The national elections of June 2023, as well as the European elections of 2024, recorded the highest abstention rates in the 20-year period 2004-2024.

Approaching the city from a gender perspective

ARTICLE
The goal of the project “Ioannina: Bridges of Participation” is to offer a gender perspective to the city of Ioannina’s urban development procedures. This implies a higher likelihood that women, as well as other minorities like children, teenagers, the elderly, and the disabled, will be taken into account in future urban planning in order to ensure that everyone can enjoy the city equally and that it can meet everyone’s needs.

‘Retrieved’: A Feminist Foreign Policy Podcast Series

PODCAST SERIES
The future of foreign policy can be better. In the five episodes of this series of podcasts, with the help of policy advisors, journalists, researchers, and politicians, we examine how feminist foreign policy can reflect the interests of all genders and often overlooked stakeholders: from peace-building and climate, to migration and defence policy, we look to examples from across the EU that show how this bold new model benefits society at large - and the challenges on the horizon.

Understanding the New Pact: How the EU is abolishing the right to asylum

VIDEO
Our partner organization Border Violence Monitoring Network recently hosted a webinar titled 'Understanding the Pact: How the EU is Abolishing the Right to Asylum', which we were happy to support. In light of the complexity and intransparency of the reform process, this webinar not only provided much needed elaborations on the proposed changes to the Common European Asylum System, but also the potential implications these would have in different EU Member States.
