Reclaim the Initiative!
The Peoples’ Platform Europe, was born from the need to share experiences between those who, within European geographies, struggle against the forces of oppression, and to discuss possibilities and opportunities in the search for a free life. It calls on all democratic forces and activists from progressive, revolutionary and anti-system movements to participate, from the perspective that a process of collective discussion, at the broadest possible platform of democratic and revolutionary organisations, movements, and collectives, is necessary to find the right answers to the questions of our time.
Through the slogan ‘reclaim the initiative’, the platform seeks to remind us of the active role we must all take in building the future we dream of together. Success in this process depends on tackling problems at the roots: organising struggles for freedom and democracy that seek to bring about liberatory changes in mentality within our societies, in the battle for hearts and minds against the forces of capitalist modernity. In the first meeting of the Peoples’ Platform Europe, 800 delegates representing more than 160 organisations from 35 countries and territories answered this call. Together, we took important first steps, in beginning to build common analyses of the pressing social and political issues of our time, and in how to organise together.
