EU: Deliver for People and Planet
To EU leaders,
The interconnectedness of our world has never been clearer. Crises like climate change, pandemics, and conflicts transcend borders. They affect us all, regardless of where we live. These shared challenges demand bold, decisive action now.
The EU has long been a leader in addressing global issues. But today that leadership is being tested. The next EU 7-year budget must include a significant increase in funding for development and climate action. This is more than a moral obligation to people and the planet - it is a strategic investment in a future that is safer, fairer, and more sustainable for everyone - in Europe and globally. More importantly, it builds the kind of partnerships rooted in human rights that are essential to addressing global challenges and securing lasting prosperity and stability.
Increasing funding for development, humanitarian and climate action is a commitment to a world where we all thrive.
EU leaders must rise to this pivotal moment. The stakes are too high, and delay is not an option.
The EU has a choice. It can lead the way toward a fairer, safer, more sustainable world—or it can turn its back when its leadership is needed most.
