Our Campaigns
Our Campaigns
European Alternatives is a citizen-run organisation, helping to take forwards issues our community finds of importance to build a Europe of justice, democracy, and solidarity.
Current Campaigns
European Initiative for Media Pluralism
The European Initiative for Media Pluralism promotes the idea that European institutions should safeguard the right to independent and pluralistic information as sanctioned by the European Charter on Human Rights. We aim to mobilise citizens from throughout Europe to stand up and demand that the European institutions show their commitment to fundamental rights and civil liberties, even when member states increasingly fail to do so.
For this we need to reach the crucial figure of one million signatures, a number which will allow the Initiative and all citizens participating in the campaign to open a legislative process at EU level.

Open access now
Today, in most EU countries, journalists and civil society have very limited access to migrant detention centres. The Open Access campaign focuses on visits by journalists and civil society groups to detention centres for migrants, in order to document and argue for the following call: Detention centres for migrants, open the doors, We have the right to know! Because European citizens have the right to know the consequences of the policies implemented in their name. We demand that the right of access to detention centres be granted to journalists and civil society.

Europe without borders
The right to free movement across the continent and to move across the Schengen area without border controls are two of the foundations of European citizenship. They are amongst the most popular European achievements and the most widely recognised. We refuse that these rights should be put in question by some of the most influential politicians in Europe.

Past Campaigns
Condemn the Roma expulsion
We circulated a Europe-wide petition condemning the expulsions of Roma from France and demanding the European authorities take a strong stance against violations of fundamental rights and the principle of non-discrimination in Europe. We stressed that if violations of the rights of Roma go unanswered, it is the rights of all Europeans that risk being trampled over. The European Commissions opened proceedings against France for violation of the treaty on free movement in Europe.

Media Freedom in Italy
We carried out a campaign to demand a European response on the increasingly worrying situation of the media in Italy, making the point that this is a European and not only Italian problem. We held press conferences in the European Parliament, published a letter signed by numerous MEPs on national newspapers such as The Guardian and La Repubblica, participated in drafting a European Parliament resolution condemning violation of media freedom in Italy, narrowly defeated by three votes.
