Over one million people signed a European Citizens’ Initiative (ECI) asking the EU to guarantee access to safe abortion. The “My voice, my choice” initiative is one of the fastest-growing ECIs, but why should you care about it? In Episode 4 of EU Democracy Unpacked, we look at the campaign and the EU’s response to it and explore the power of ECIs to foster policy and societal change.
EU Democracy Unpacked is our short video series exploring the power of democratic life in Europe. Each episode focuses on a different development in EU democracy, from national elections to citizens’ initiatives.
