The promoters of both these two projects have understood that systemic change will only happen when we change how and by whom political power is exercised. And the most exciting part is that they are already achieving some impact!
We are welcoming two new grantees to our community! And we are specially excited because they are based in countries where we did not support projects yet 👇
🇨🇿 The second one is 𝐈𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐚 𝐧á𝐣𝐞𝐦𝐧í𝐤ů 𝐚 𝐧á𝐣𝐞𝐦𝐧𝐢𝐜, an initiative to defend Czech tenants' rights and to build political power for this collective 👉 https://t.co/U2HyAy20R3

❓Is philanthropy political? At Multitudes we believe the answer is a big "YES" and that's what our Director, @Sarah__Durieux, defended recently at the European Academy of Strategic Philanthropy https://t.co/BLLCjFUb0K
Yesterday's results show us again that our democracies are not working for everyone. We need to #reimaginepolitics, urgently, to deliver an effective response to the many challenges ahead and to defend the European values that have allowed us to progress in the last decades.
Millions of Europeans showed up to the polls yesterday to elect a new European Parliament for the next five years. Voter turnout is estimated to be around 51%. This means that, despite the many challenges Europe is facing, half of the electorate decided to stay home. Why? 👇
In a "distant" institution such as the EU, were lack of diversity is the norm, this phenomenon only increases. According to a recent report by @ENAREurope, MEPs identifying as belonging to racialised minorities represent just 4.3% of all MEPs in the outgoing Parliament.
European elections will take place in a few days and it's a good opportunity to reflect on the long way we still have ahead of us to achieve a democracy that works for everyone. The MEPs interviewed for the article offer good insights into what is needed
