Towards a permanent Peoples' Assembly for Europe
6. ‘If People relocate, democracy must follow’ - STEPS?
[Please note this latest version was made public on 25 May 2025, after the final meeting (Link esterna) of the 2024/25 pilot Assembly]
Steps? (Vienna spirit)
- Having a citizens assembly which include the voices of migrants and people in mobiliy and those impacted by this phenomenon.
- Lower administrative burdens for migrants and people in mobility to access their rights.
- Feedback loop between different authorities who decide over e.g. migrants visa processes. This process should be transparent.
- Creating a Media Independent “Authority” to oversee the depiction of people in mobility and prevent hatred speech through ‘watch-dog’.
- Every person who pays taxes in an area or is registered as resident (no matter which residency-status (Aufenthaltsstatus) they have) has the right to vote on the community and local level.
- Develop a welcome package for each country, outlining participation opportunities, rights, and responsibilities for new residents.
- strengthen local services (welcome services, job-orienteering/social services...)in communities where migration levels are high to diminish social insecurity concerning the topic.
- In the EU we need a synergy between the central institutions and the local community who care about "moving people".
- Reforming the educational system implemented by civic education, civic EU education, empathy education and education to step in someone's shoes.
- ‘Democratic Onboarding’ - Educate about rights, duties, democracy for people from abroad. Gamification, nudging and compensation for expenses/time.
- Representative on an institutional local level for “migrants/moving people”.
