  • Dear Colleagues, Dear Friends Since I Launched My
    Dear colleagues, Dear friends Since I launched my candidacy for the co-spokesperson of the European Greens for the period of November 2019 to spring 2022, this document shall provide some background information on me as a person, the way I view Green European politics, and what I believe could be the next steps in developing the role of EGP within the “orchestra” of European green parties. First some history: Thomas Waitz, born in 1973 in Vienna as child of a rail worker and a farmers daughter, three children age 19 to 25, organic farmer since 1994, beekeeping and forestry as the main work fields, been with the Austrian Greens since 1999, I have served on all political levels, locally, in the region of Styria, as a farmers parliamentarian in the chamber of farmers, in regional and national boards, seven years as treasurer in a green foundation, as an Austrian EGP -delegate since the founding of the EGP in 2004 (with a break of approximately three years), since 2017 as committee member, end of 2017 to 2019 as a member of the European parliament. If Brexit happens, I will return to the EP as the 19th Austrian MEP. The last European elections showed that - if we do our job right - our voters potential rose towards 20%. This is true for the member states of the EU where the green parties have an established traditional basis, where we have been active and present in parliaments and sometimes in governments. Some may say, we have arrived at the center of the political spectrum.

  • Urgent Call for Action: Making Use of the Conference on the Future of Europe for Reforming Or Abolishing the EURATOM Treaty
    Urgent call for action: Making use of the Conference on the Future of Europe for reforming or abolishing the EURATOM Treaty Brussels, 6 October 2020 Dear Mrs. President of the EU Commission von der Leyen, Dear Mr. President of the European Council Michel, In your application speech for your current position held on 16 July 2019, you have passionately advocated a united, fair and equal Europe that is developing strong and ambitious solutions to the climate crisis. We welcome the commitment and energy you are putting into the implementation of the Green Deal. In order to achieve a carbon-neutral European Union until 2050 with a clean, resource efficient and competitive economy, you are focusing on fair and inclusive transitions for everyone. One of the main European Treaties, the EURATOM-Treaty, diametrically opposes your efforts. On 25 March 1957, the treaty for establishing the European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM) was signed in Rome - at the same time as the treaty establishing the European Economic Community (EEC). The "Roman Treaties" are the foundation of today's European Union. While the EEC-Treaty has been reformed several times (EEC - EC - TFEU-Treaty), the EURATOM-Treaty has remained unchanged since 1957. Its main aim is the development of a powerful European nuclear industry. Nuclear energy "represents an essential resource for the development and invigoration of industry and will permit the advancement of the cause of peace" - up to this day. This also applies to 14 member states that have never operated nuclear power plants or that have decided to phase out nuclear energy as well as to those that reject the technology constitutionally.

  • Uef-Spinelli Group
    UEF-SPINELLI GROUP MANIFESTO 9 MAY 2021 At watershed moments in history, communities need to adapt their institutions to avoid sliding into irreversible decline, thus equipping themselves to govern new circumstances. After the end of the Cold War the European Union, with the creation of the monetary Union, took a first crucial step towards adapting its institutions; but it was unable to agree on a true fiscal and social policy for the Euro. Later, the Lisbon Treaty strengthened the legislative role of the European Parliament, but again failed to create a strong economic and political union in order to complete the Euro. Resulting from that, the EU was not equipped to react effectively to the first major challenges and crises of the XXI century: the financial crash of 2008, the migration flows of 2015- 2016, the rise of national populism, and the 2016 Brexit referendum. This failure also resulted in a strengthening of the role of national governments — as shown, for example, by the current excessive concentration of power within the European Council, whose actions are blocked by opposing national vetoes —, and in the EU’s chronic inability to develop a common foreign policy capable of promoting Europe’s common strategic interests. Now, however, the tune has changed. In the face of an unprecedented public health crisis and the corresponding collapse of its economies, Europe has reacted with unity and resolve, indicating the way forward for the future of European integration: it laid the foundations by starting with an unprecedented common vaccination strategy, for a “Europe of Health”, and unveiled a recovery plan which will be financed by shared borrowing and repaid by revenue from new EU taxes levied on the digital and financial giants and on polluting industries.

  • Invitation to Expert Roundtable
    Rue de La Science 14B, 1040 Brussels 0032 02 588 00 14 www.vocaleurope.eu INVITATION TO EXPERT ROUNDTABLE The Western Balkan towards EU integration: what are the prospects and main challenges? After a rather long period of enlargement fatigue, the European Commission adopted, in February 2018, a strategy for the Western Balkans, which confirms the European future of the region, sets a target date of 2025 for the accession of Serbia and Montenegro and establishes an Action Plan that aims to strengthen the rule of law, increase the socio-economic development, and support reconciliation and good neighborly relations. In April 2018, the Commission proposed the opening of accession negotiations with the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and Albania. Nevertheless, important challenges like security, migration, neighborly disputes, and structural economic weaknesses are still faced by all countries of the region. Vocal Europe invites you to an expert roundtable on 19 June 2018 to discuss the key topics surrounding the accession process, as well as the implications that EU association holds for a region that is increasingly seen as a geopolitical target by other powerful players. We would be delighted if you were to accept this invitation and look forward to hearing from you shortly. We remain at your disposal for any further information. Please confirm your attendance latest by 15th of June 2018 by sending an e-mail to [email protected] Time: 19 June 2018, 10:30 – 12:30 Output: The discussion will be LIVE streamed. Format: The roundtable stream will follow the countries based on alphabetical order.

    To: Ms Ursula von der Leyen President of the European Commission Subject: Request for withdrawal of the CAP-proposal Brussels, 28 October 2020 Dear President Von der Leyen, Last week both the European Council and the European Parliament adopted disastrous positions1 on the reform of the European Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). Seven years and nearly 400 billion euros (about a third of the EU’s budget) that have to be used for greening the agricultural sector are about to be wasted2. Agriculture is a big contributor to climate change and biodiversity loss. The world is warming fast and we are losing birds, pollinators and ecosystems at an alarming rate, we cannot squander time nor money. Without serious action through the CAP, the goals of the EU’s Green Deal3, Biodiversity Strategy and Farm2Fork Strategy4 are in jeopardy. The European Commission has to respond. A large part of the problem is that, while it is the fundament on which all further decisions in the legislative process are being made, the original CAP reform proposal of the European Commission is weak and outdated. It comes from the previous (Juncker) Commission. When it came out, the EU Court of Auditors5 and scientists6 immediately warned that it is not fit for purpose. That was still before your Commission came into place and before you presented the Green Deal and all the EU’s new environmental and climate goals for 2030: 55% greenhouse gas reduction, 10% of the agricultural land dedicated to nature, 50% pesticides and antibiotics reduction, 20% less fertilizers, to name a few.

Theoretical background of care farming at European level. Care farming, also known as “green care”, “social farming”, "farming for health", and "green therapies", has taken on various forms and is organised in different ways in different European countries. There is great variety in the approaches to social farming across Europe, as well as in how it is connected to other sectors and the funding mechanisms that are used. Care farming has taken on many different forms across Europe, broadly based around three different discourses; multifunctional agriculture, public health, and social inclusion. One could say that care farming is most established in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Italy. Most research in the Netherlands focuses on care farming as part of the agricultural sector and as a new source of farm income. Great importance is also placed on interaction between participants and the farmers and their families. Care farming took off commercially in the Netherlands in the 1990s. It tends to operate on a service-based model. Engaging in care farming activities are seen as a type of social or health service and these activities are paid for directly or indirectly through health insurance. Similarities with the Dutch experience of social farming can be observed in Flanders (Belgium) and Slovenia.
