As a bold initiative towards redefining the future of Europe, the Rome Manifesto has emerged as a cornerstone document for our movement. This manifesto, crafted by a group of young Europeans, directly addresses the pressing challenges and structural inefficiencies within the European Union.
The document articulates a clear dissatisfaction with the current administrative and political frameworks of the EU, seen as insufficient for the dynamic and complex landscape of contemporary Europe. It posits that a more integrated and federal approach is necessary to ensure the continent’s prosperity, stability, and democratic integrity.
The manifesto celebrates Europe’s rich cultural diversity and the significant achievements since the post-war period, advocating for these to be preserved and enhanced under a new federal framework. It envisions a renewed social contract that not only respects the historical and cultural fabric of Europe but also adapts to the evolving needs of its citizens.
Central to the Rome Manifesto is the call for the establishment of a pan-European constitutional assembly. This ambitious initiative aims to lay down the foundational structure for a federal Europe, defining the competences and authorities of new, empowered institutions that can better represent and serve the diverse populations of the continent.
The movement behind the Rome Manifesto invites all interested parties to engage with the document, to discuss its implications, and to contribute to the shaping of Europe’s future through participation in upcoming meetings and events. This is a call to action for all Europeans who believe in a more unified and effective European Union.
As Europe stands at a crossroads, the Rome Manifesto offers a path forward, envisioning a continent that thrives on unity, strategic foresight, and the collective will of its people.
