The European Movement in Scotland is Scotland's only dedicated pro-Europe campaigning organisation. We believe in a strong and united Europe.
We work to inform the public debate on European issues, through events, lobbying and publicity.
The European Movement is an independent non-profit making organisation which welcomes members of all political parties, and those without affiliation. We area a membership organisation and receive no funding from any political party, from the UK or Scottish Governments or from any institution of the European Union.
Although the Movement in Scotland shares the same overall aims and objectives as the UK Movement, it is particularly concerned with the interests of Scotland as a constituent part of Europe. We maintain close and friendly relations with our sister organisations in England, Wales and Northern Ireland
Our aims are:
to advance the goal of European unity
to advance the cause of greater understanding and co-operation between the democratic states of Europe
to ensure that the interests of Scotland are promoted within the institutions of the European Union, and other European bodies
to press for improved processes of democratic accountability within the institutions of the European Union.
Members receive information about and invitations to events, newsletters and occasional news briefings. New members are always welcome - see our website for details.
