Die Konferenz zur Zukunft Europas ist eine Diskussionsreihe, bei der Bürgerinnen und Bürger aus der gesamten EU Ideen austauschen und so unsere gemeinsame Zukunft mitgestalten können. Etwas Vergleichbares gab es noch nie: Die Konferenz ist eine groß angelegte, EU-weite Übung in Demokratie. Sie bietet ein Forum für eine offene, alle einbeziehende und transparente Diskussion mit den Bürgerinnen und Bürgern. Der Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf einigen Hauptprioritäten und Problemstellungen. So sollen die Unionsbürgerinnen und -bürger bei dem, was die EU – vor allem für sie – tut, mehr Mitsprache erhalten.

At least one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set by the UN will be missed in 2030 – SDG 2 – 'zero hunger'. Hunger and malnutrition are rising dramatically across the world, a trend aggravated by the pandemic. In 2020, 811 million people in the world were facing hunger, the highest level since 2014. In the EU itself, considered one of the most food-secure regions in the world, nearly 7 million people were already experiencing severe food insecurity before the pandemic, and malnutrition is on the rise. SDG 2 aims not only at achieving food security but also at improving nutrition and promoting sustainable agriculture. These objectives have been mainstreamed in the recently reformed common agricultural policy and the 'farm to fork' and biodiversity strategies.

The rapid growth of genetic databases worldwide, coupled with fast-decreasing costs and increased technological speed, has raised the possibility of every human genome on Earth being sequenced within this century. This brings to the forefront ethical and legal questions on data privacy and ownership. While a world genomic database would revolutionise preventive medicine and research, new forms of surveillance, discrimination and power imbalances could emerge. The global interplay between the individual, the state and private individuals could shift, requiring modern and flexible legislation to protect the rights of the individual.

The EU has contributed to creating the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), established in 2015, as part of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and takes action to implement them through its internal and external policies, as outlined in the 'Towards a Sustainable Europe by 2030' reflection paper, the European Green Deal, the European Commission's political priorities and its work programme. The Sustainable Development Goals also have a regional dimension, sometimes called 'localisation'. Achieving around 65 % of the targets is estimated to require local and regional authority participation. Numerous regions and cities, including in the EU, have expressed support for the SDGs and many have integrated them in their policy frameworks.

The Commission is the executive branch of the European Union and Parliament plays a big part in selecting who sits on it. 
Comprised of 27 Commissioners - one from each EU member state - the Commission proposes legislation, which is then sent to Parliament and EU countries to be scrutinised, amended, negotiated and approved. 

But how exactly are the Commission and its president chosen and what is Parliament's role?
