In February 2024, Dialogue Platform signed a Partnership Agreement with the European Parliament, establishing a long-term collaboration aimed at strengthening civic engagement and democratic participation. A key focus of this partnership was supporting the #UseYourVote campaign and the Together.eu initiative in the lead-up to the 2024 European Elections (EE2024), held from 6-9 June 2024. These efforts aimed to raise awareness and encourage active participation among EU citizens, employers, workers, community leaders, and industry organizations, emphasizing the importance of voting in the European Elections.

In line with the 2024 Partnership Agreement, Dialogue Platform expanded its involvement beyond communication activities by organizing three events at the European Parliament’s Infohub in Brussels. These events were co-hosted by the EP’s Civil Society Outreach Unit and aimed to foster dialogue on civic participation and democratic values. Additionally, Dialogue Platform actively participated in several events organized by the European Parliament’s Partnership Team, further contributing to the collective efforts to engage citizens and promote democratic involvement across Europe.
