The proposal is the result of the work carried out by the prestigious members of the ad hoc “Reflection Group on the Future of the EU“. The text\, that was created in fruitful collaboration\, further matured during a cycle of events. Concretely\, it contains five general guidelines for the future of Europe and ten concrete proposals for the direction  of the European Union. Importantly\, 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; and on how it can increase its capacity to act and achieve what citizens expect. All that without excluding the possibility of modifying the Treaty. \nThis FMA Proposal to the “Conference on the Future of Europe” can be downloaded in all 24 EU official languages from the FMA website. \n  \nThis conference was the pinnacle of the event\, called “Present Future of Europe”. The “Present Future of Europe” event takes the form of the following three parts: \n(1) the “Present Future of Europe” exhibition\, where some significant documents of the 4 major European Political Foundations are exhibited;\n(2) the High-Level Conference “The Future of Europe starts today”\, focused on the current debate concerning the “Conference on the Future of Europe”;\n(3) the publication of the documents collected in a book ‘The Present Future of Europe’\, with contributions of several important personalities. \n  \nWith the support of: \nWilfried Martens Centre for European Studies; Foundation for European Progressive Studies; European Liberal Forum; Green European Foundation \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kslCt_s8adM” align=”center”][vc_btn title=”REWATCH THE EVENT HERE” size=”lg” align=”center” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DkslCt_s8adM|target:_blank”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]On 21 March 2022\, the inauguration of the exhibition “Present Future of Europe” took place\, organized by the European Parliament Former Members Association and the Historical Archives of the European Union\, in Sala De Gasperi in the European University Institute at Villa Salviati\, Florence\, Italy. \n21 March – 21 April 2022\nThis exhibition introduces the origins of the main political groups in the European Parliament and the activities of four important political foundations through a selection of documents from the Historical Archives of the European Union\, the Wilfried Martens Centre for European Studies (WMCES)\, the Foundation for European Progressive Studies (FEPS)\, the European Liberal Forum (ELF) and the Green European Foundation (GEF). \nThe event was coordinated by Monica Baldi\, Dieter Schlenker & Teresa Riera Madurell.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”20359″ img_size=”full” onclick=”custom_link” link=”https://www.formermembers.eu/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/PFE-panel-1.pdf”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”20363″ img_size=”full” onclick=”custom_link” link=”https://www.formermembers.eu/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/PFE-panel-2.pdf”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”20418″ img_size=”full” onclick=”custom_link” link=”https://www.formermembers.eu/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/PFE-panel-3.pdf”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
