    Goals / Remit

    As a network of political foundations, affiliated to different political ideologies across the democratic spectrum, ENoP and its members advocate for the respect of democratic principles and political pluralism inside and outside of Europe.

    They build bridges, create common grounds and understanding between political and civil society actors in Europe and partner-countries as to strengthen core democratic values, and contribute to nurturing pluralistic and inclusive societies.

    Today ENoP brings together 53 member foundations from 23 European member-states and the UK, having access to local partners in over 100 countries worldwide.

    We stand for the core value of representative democracy where the people elect members of political parties to create and vote on laws, policies, and matters of government on their behalf. The Network is committed to supporting democratic processes in partner-countries, while contributing to the internal discussions on the future of Europe.

    Main EU files targeted

    The thematic areas covered by ENoP are reflected in its four Working Groups (WGs) on: Democracy, Sustainable Development, EU Funding and The Future of Europe.

    Each of these WGs covers a large spectrum of topics of interest to our members and aimed at contributing to an enhanced EU legislative and policy framework that respects the principle of Policy Coherence for Sustainable Development (PCSD) and that ensures a multi-stakeholder approach where the voice of both civil society and political actors are heard.

    Some of our main policy areas target the following:

    • The Multi-Annual Financial Frameworks of the EU (EU Funding) with a focus on external funding instruments (such as the NDICI) – ENoP has been very active in contributing to the MFF 2021-2027 in order to ensure a fair support for democracy-related actions and actors;
    • Human Rights and Democracy Action Plans of the EU – ENoP had an active role in the consultation process around the HRD Action Plan 2020-2024;
    • EU-Africa Partnership – another important pillar of our work is related to the EU-Africa evolving partnership. ENoP has contributed with policy proposals to the EU Communication “Towards a comprehensive strategy with Africa”. The Network follows closely the developments of Post-Cotonou Agreement and is part of the Joint EU-Africa Strategy (JAES) CSO Steering Group.
    • Enlargement/Neighborhood Policies – our WGs on Sustainable Development and Future of Europe follow closely the discussions and consultations on the EU Enlargement and Neighborhood polices.
    • Conference on the future of Europe – ENoP members explore ways to enhance civic education and bring awareness-raising on the SDGs and Agenda 2030 inside the EU as well as abroad. Our contribution to the ongoing Conference on the Future of Europe aims to bring ideas on how political foundations can help bridge the gap between CSOs and political actors in Europe as to improve democratic governance.
