Gestern habe ich für @nabu.de bei Europe.Calling deutlich gemacht: #Demokratie braucht starke Zivilgesellschaft. Dazu gehören #NGOs, auch wenn sie manchmal unbequem sind. NGOs müssen Entscheidungen auch mit der #Verbandsklage überprüfen können. #CDU/CSU muss Angriff auf #LIFEProgramm beenden!

Nächsten Montag #EuropeCalling zu #NGOs, u.a. mit @danielfreund.bsky.social - ich darf die Position des @nabu.de einbringen: Gut, alle Argumente auf den Tisch zu legen, gegen die Attacke von Rechtsaußen auf Zivilgesellschaft und den #EUGreenDeal!

And with that, EPP together with the far right did not only try to kill EU's #NGOs but environmental policies and concretely the tiny + only EU funding for nature projects, also undertaken by authorities & landowner stakeholders. PS The lobby issue lies with big byz! #LIFEProgramm #EUGreenDeal
The ENVI Committee voted yesterday on the objection on financing the LIFE programme.
Once again, the EPP tried to attack NGOs with no other reason than undermining their work & the Green Deal.
Luckily they lost.
NGOs are crucial in ensuring civil society plays a role in the law-making process.
