Pro-European initiatives

If you have at least a little interest in Europe, you will always notice that there are countless actions and initiatives that address the topic of Europe, promote our Europe and some even want to help shape our Europe.

The oldest of these initiatives is still the European Federalists, but there are other associations, clubs or institutions that make a contribution to our Europe.

For about two years, the EUROPA-UNION Heilbronn has been planning to establish something like a European seal of quality for municipalities in Baden-Württemberg and today I was able to find out that something similar already exists in France.

Hence the idea of ​​collecting such initiatives, actions and their initiators here in this forum and putting them up for discussion.

  • Addition: Inflation is stronger than before the euro?

    No. The euro has been around for 25 years. On average, the Eurosystem (ECB + national central banks) achieved the inflation target significantly better between 1999 and 2020 than was the case before. The phase of current inflation as a result of the Corona crisis and the supply bottlenecks and the energy crisis has driven up prices worldwide in 2021 and 2022. Inflation has been falling continuously since the end of 2022 and is approaching 2% again.
    In addition, the common currency has given Europe stability in various crises.
    The common currency supports the domestic market and has helped Germany achieve strong export performance.

  • I would like to add to the minutes of the “Europe Now!” discussion group that we participants also debated how “natural” Europe has become, especially for us younger people. Many of us don't know any different. Travel without borders, pay in euros, no customs fees when shopping online, we hardly know any other way. It is important to demonstrate these freedoms in order to arouse interest in Europe.
    Likewise, the majority of the group agreed that we are not afraid, but rather feel concern and uncertainty when we observe current developments.

    • As we were able to determine, the half-life of such rounds is not sufficient to fill a forum even remotely. Where non-binding has become a principle, you really have to think about completely new communication channels.
