Strengthening the integrity of the 2024 European Parliament elections

Supporting Engagement in European Elections and Democratic Societies (SEEEDS) seeks to strengthen the integrity of the 2024 European Parliament elections through a non-partisan transnational network that brings together civil society and electoral experts from all EU Member States and facilitates exchanges with decision-makers at the European level. We want to improve the capacity of civil society, strengthen understanding of European Parliament elections and ultimately promote broad voter participation. With our non-partisan, participatory approach, we bridge the gap between citizens from across the EU on legislation and selected electoral issues, focusing on underrepresented groups, including women, youth and mobile citizens. In this way, SEEEDS will help to strengthen and expand a transnational network of active citizens working for inclusive and engaged elections based on human rights and the rule of law.
