Objectives

The EURCICA (European Citizens Catalyst) project will further develop the capacities of ECU and its network of members and strategic partners to fulfill their mission of empowering citizens and promoting EU citizenship rights, and will give citizens the opportunity to contribute to the implementation of the European Democracy Action Plan (EDAP) and the EU Citizenship Report 2020.

EURCICA aims to strengthen European citizenship and identity through citizen engagement, support the post-COVID restoration of free movement in the EU, promote the rights of mobile EU citizens, including their right to vote, and political and socio-economic integration in host countries. This will be achieved through capacity building of rights advice organizations and public authorities in EU member states, awareness campaigns targeting citizens across the EU, and policy recommendations for a more favorable environment for the enforcement of EU citizens' rights and fundamental freedoms.
