Mission & Goals
European Alternatives is a not-for-profit organisation, with offices in Paris, Berlin, Palermo and Brussels. European Alternatives works to promote democracy, equality and culture beyond the nation-state and imagine, demand and enact alternatives for a viable future. We are doing this through: - Articulating a radical, long-term vision of democratic, just and culturally-open politics, society and culture beyond the nation-state for Europe and for the world. - Experimenting with forms of action that contribute to transformative change in political institutions, society, the economy and imagination. - Building the capacity, the mutual-awareness and connection of members, activists and organisations working in line with our values. - Advancing and defending human, fundamental, civic, democratic and social rights across borders.
