A Radical Alliance for Europe
Transform! Europe & Another Europe is Possible
Europe faces a stark choice: plunging into a new dark age marked by the rising tide of fascism and nationalism; or advancing a new politics of radical and progressive change. To make the latter a reality, we must reach out of our own countries and build pan-European alliances. This session will seek to catalyse these efforts for a new and just Europe.
