We offer committed citizens, as well as organizations, the opportunity to create petitions and disseminate them. With this work, we pursue §2 Nr. 1 a and b of our social contract: the goal of promoting education and the goal of promoting democracy.
Through the petitions hosted on YouMove, WeMove Europe gGmbH promotes stronger citizen engagement and participation in the formation of political opinion in Europe. WeMove Europe gGmbH supervises the implementation of petition proposals, which are sent by individuals and partners from all over Europe.
Petitions in which the expected or measured interest of the citizens is particularly high are disseminated by WeMove Europe gGmBH to a wide range of interested parties. WeMove Europe gGmbH developed a criteria catalogue by which the petitions can be accepted or declined. If a certain petition receives a high level of interest from citizens, then we use the opportunity to make it known to a wider audience of people through emails.
In total, 58 new campaigns were launched on the YouMove platform in 2025 in 13 different languages (108 campaigns in more than 20 languages in 2024). YouMove petitions collected about 330,848 signatures (over one million signatures in 2024), and we received over 121,000 new contacts (256,000 in 2024).
Towards the end of 2025, WeMove Europe gGmbH is entering a phase of reviewing the effectiveness and future constitution of the YouMove platform. During this review phase, since November 2025, only technical support capacity is invested in the day-to-day management of the platform.
