Contribute
If you support this idea, there are several ways to take part. You do not need professional qualifications or a large amount of free time to begin.
1. Join the forum and stay informed
Become a forum member to follow discussions, ask questions and share your views. You will also be able to choose whether to subscribe to project update emails. That subscription will be optional and separate from the emails needed to manage your account.
2. Get to know other members
Talk to people on the forum and in our Telegram group. Make connections, especially with people from your own country. Getting to know reliable collaborators is an important first step towards doing something together.
The main Telegram group will use English. Country groups will use their local languages, and members will be able to participate in both.
Telegram channel ↗Official announcements and articles only.
Telegram group ↗Discussion for confirmed forum members.
3. Apply to join the Founding Council
If you want to take an active role in developing the common programme and building the European organisation, consider applying to the Founding Council.
This involves practical work, responsibility and a commitment to cooperating with others. The Council page explains the role, the selection process and the experience or abilities that could help the team.
4. Build a team in your country
If you are interested in establishing a future national organisation, start by bringing together at least three or four reliable collaborators willing to share its leadership and practical work.
The national organisations will follow a common programme. Once that programme has been adopted and the European organisation is ready to issue licences, your team will be able to apply to the Council.
If approved, your team can receive a licence to use the shared name and identity and establish an organisation in your country, subject to local legal requirements. It will operate under the common programme and agreed licensing rules.
You can begin finding collaborators now. Recognition and permission to establish a licensed organisation come through the later approval process.
5. Write for the website
You can contribute an article that presents a clear argument or a useful perspective on the issues we cover. You do not need to be a professional writer.
See Write for Us for the editorial requirements and submission process. Every article will be reviewed before publication.
