17-19 November | Saturdays For Europe
#SaturdaysForEurope are a series of street actions organised by European federalists to connect with citizens and raise public awareness, advocating for the draft treaty of the amendment of the treaty, rejecting the current dysfunctional European structure and endorsing a federal, sovereign, and democratic Europe.
