European Citizens' Panel on the New EU Budget: we're organising the democratic lottery

Throughout February 2025, Sortition Foundation & Sortition Europe, with the incredible help of our SORT-EU partner network from all across the EU, is running the democratic lottery to select people for the next European Citizens' Panel on:

What should the EU spend money on to improve our common future?

The Panel will bring 150 people together - a demographically representative group of EU citizens - to discuss what priorities and challenges should be addressed in the next long-term EU budget.

The panel will take place over 3 weekends, from Friday-Sunday:

  • 1st weekend: from Friday to Sunday 28-30 March in Brussels
  • 2nd weekend: from Friday to Sunday 25-27 April online
  • 3rd weekend: from Friday to Sunday 16-18 May in Brussels

So if you live in the EU and you hear a knock on your door one of these days, it might be us!
