Zusammenfassung
Compared to most member states, EU-level participative democracy is quite advanced. However, to remain in the pole position, the EU needs to further develop its instruments for involving individual citizens as well as organized civil society. In order to move from the current top-down to a more bottom-up approach, citizens must be given a true right of initiative, policy makers need to become more responsive to citizens input, instruments must be simplified and participation should be increased. The second paper provides ten recommendations how to address these reform needs. The planned Conference on the Future of Europe is the best opportunity to test these ways of bottom-up citizens involvement.
