Eyes on Europe is proud to launch Spring Magazine N°42: Echoes of Europe : Who’s Listening? 🎙️🇪🇺

In a time of uncertainty and rapid change, communication in and about Europe has become more than just the transmission of facts, it’s a democratic act. It’s about defending values, engaging citizens, and resisting disinformation. But in this noisy landscape, who gets to speak for Europe and who’s truly listening?

📖 In this edition, we explore the evolving role of civil society, the rising influence of digital platforms, and the challenges of making the European project heard and understood. Inside, you’ll find articles on:

- Communicating the EU from the peripheries to the center 🌍
- Civil society and institutions: a strained dialogue 🏛️
- The European Citizens’ Initiative: power to the people 🗳️
- The rising pressure on NGOs in Europe 🛡️
- The “Democracy Shield” and the fight to protect democratic values ⚖️
- Platform regulation, free speech, and the war on disinformation 📢💻
- From Elon Musk’s X to Russia’s ideological warfare: who controls the message? 🛰️
- What it means to inform in a world where clarity, credibility, and complexity collide 🤝

💙 Huge thanks to our brilliant Editors-in-Chief, & , whose vision brought this edition to life!

And a special shout-out to Chiara Liguori for the amazing design of this edition!

🇪🇺 Happy Europe Day from Eyes on Europe
“Europe will not be made all at once, or according to a single plan. It will be built through concrete achievements which first create a de facto solidarity.” - Robert Schuman, 9 May 1950

Today, we celebrate Europe Day, marking the birth of a vision, a peaceful, united Europe built on cooperation and solidarity.

At Eyes on Europe, we believe in continuing that legacy: promoting dialogue, critical thinking, and active citizenship among young Europeans. As students, scholars, and future leaders, we keep our eyes on Europe and its challenges, its achievements, and its future.

🕊️ Let’s remember: European integration started with solidarity. It continues with us.
