EU Conference on the Future of Europe – Faith Communities have Something to Say

We recently received this report from 'Faith in Europe' - a report that they have shared with the EU Conference on the Future of Europe.  You can read the full report and also contribute to the EU Conference on the Future of Europe here: EU Conference on the Future of Europe – Faith Communities have Something to Say – Faith In Europe

"Faith in Europe is a British and Irish network of individuals and faith community organizations focusing on European issues and contacts. Its approach to the Conference on the Future of Europe has been to enable discussions to take place between people of faith and to collect the issues and ideas coming out of those discussions. These ideas come from members of faith communities. We believe that faith groups have an important role as interpreters of the EU's activities in their own constituencies, and vice versa, and that the EU should actively encourage this bridge-building. Faith in Europe held an online consultation on 21 October 2021. This brought together a group of concerned citizens linked to faith communities. To honour the spirit of the Conference Charter, five preliminary meetings took place online and the results of these, and other preliminary papers, can be found in the reports of meetings before the consultation (link below). In the same spirit, a large part of the consultation took place in small groups of up to six people, the results of which were presented to and discussed by the whole group of participants."
