What is the PES activist city group network?

There are two kinds of PES activists city groups. Some are working groups of PES member parties. They are active on local and regional levels wanting to promote discussion about Europe. Others are expatriate members of different PES member parties wanting to get together and get engaged with local as well as European politics.

PES activists city groups are not a formal structure of the PES. They are a loose network of local groups working for the same aims. The PES activist city groups remain responsible to the respective PES member party or - in the case of expatriate clubs- are sometimes organised as a local association. by connecting to the network, these groups gain a direct communication channel to the PES and to each other.

PES activist groups benefit from:

- Listing on the PES activist city group Google-Map.
- Inviting PES speakers to their meetings
- Inclusion on the mailing list for PES activist city groups. Through the mailing list, all city groups can directly approach each other.
- Presenting their organisation, activities and ideas on Yourspace, the interactive part of the PES website.
- Posting their meetings on the interactive PES calendar
- Sending in papers, comments and ideas as "think tanks" of the PES.
