Enhancing participation of mobile EU citizens in the European Parliament Elections

Supporting Engagement in European Elections and Democratic Societies (SEEEDS) seeks to strengthen the integrity of the 2024 European Parliament elections through a non-partisan transnational network that brings together civil society and electoral experts from all EU Member States and facilitates exchanges with decision-makers at the European level. Ahead of the 2024 European Elections, SEEEDS invites you to a webinar series focusing on inclusion in the European Elections. The first webinar will focus on participation of mobile EU citizens in the European Parliament Elections. EU mobile citizens are EU citizens living in another Member State. They are estimated to number 13.7 million, of whom some 11 million are considered to be of voting age. Mobile EU citizens can also stand as candidates, but in the 2019 European Elections only 168 decided to do so. Civil society organisations reported a number of problems encountered by mobile EU citizens when exercising their political rights in their Member State of residence. What are the alternative voting options available in the Member States? What are the different requirements for mobile citizens to register and vote in their host countries? Join us for the discussion!
