Luxembourg City, November 2 – MOREin24 Luxembourg, a groundbreaking initiative aimed at fostering widespread participation in the upcoming EU Elections of 2024, is set to debut with an event on November 15th, 18:40, at Melia Luxembourg, organised in collaboration with Change for Luxembourg, the grassroots participation movement.

This inaugural event promises to be a dynamic gathering, delivering short inspiring talks and insights in under 15 minutes, and giving the opportunity for attendees to exchange.

Attendees can expect comprehensive information on ‘MORE IN 24’, Change for Luxembourg and an unparalleled opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals committed to bolstering voter engagement and to meet some of Luxembourg’s active MEP’s currently representing them at the European Parliament.

Morein24 Luxembourg is guided by volunteer changemakers Tommy Jack and Sam Elsey. The initiative is dedicated to forging closer ties between Luxembourg’s youth and topics such as youth engagement, voter participation, and the European Union. This mission will be realised through thought-provoking visits to educational and corporate institutions, an engaging social media campaign, extensive collaborations spanning across Europe, and an array of enriching events and initiatives.

The initiative, spearheaded by the EYCA, and supported by the European Parliament, seeks to inspire a wave of change, urging young citizens and residents to embrace their right to participate in the democratic process. It aims to create a unified front to ensure that the voice of every member of our society resonates in the upcoming EU Elections.

“This launch marks a pivotal moment in empowering our diverse communities in Luxembourg to drive change. We’re excited to unite passionate individuals and organisations to amplify participation in the EU Elections, and we’re beyond excited to be introducing MORE IN 24 Luxembourg to the public” said Christos Floros (Change for Luxembourg), one of the event’s organisers.

Join us in making a difference and championing active engagement in the EU Elections.

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our brand new resources section, dedicated to promoting voter registration and encouraging active participation in the democratic process.

As part of our ongoing commitment to empower and inform voters, we are excited to introduce our first resource: a guide on how to register to vote.

Led by our exceptional Communications Director, Emma, our amazing team has been hard at work to compile this invaluable, distilled, resource. With easy-to-follow instructions, our guide aims to simplify the voting process and empower individuals to exercise their right to vote effectively.

At our resources section, we will continue to curate a wealth of information to support and educate voters. Whether you’re a first-time voter or an experienced participant in the democratic process, we have you covered. In the coming months, stay tuned as we expand our collection to address a wide range of topics, including voter requirements, understanding the electoral system, and tackling common voting misconceptions.

By launching this resources section, our goal is to foster greater engagement and strengthen democracy by ensuring that everyone has the tools and knowledge they need to participate fully in elections. Together, let’s build a more informed and inclusive society where every voice counts!

Keep an eye on our website for future updates and valuable resources. Let’s make a difference together!

Happy reading and remember, your vote matters!

Dear Change-Makers,

This morning marked a significant milestone in our journey to bring about positive change in Luxembourg.

We are thrilled to announce that 30 dedicated core members have received invitations to accept various roles within our movement. These roles are designed to help structure and strengthen “Change for Luxembourg” as a powerful political movement advocating for political inclusion, access to politics, increased representation, and enhanced engagement in our country’s political landscape.

Our mission is clear—to create a platform that fosters political inclusion and empowers citizens to actively participate in shaping the future of our nation. By working together, we aim to bridge the gap between people and politics, creating a space for constructive dialogue and collaboration. Our ultimate goal is to build a stronger democracy by training and supporting future political actors who will champion the interests of all Luxembourgers.

Our Vision:

• Political Inclusion: To ensure that every voice, regardless of background or status, is heard and represented in Luxembourg’s political landscape.
• Access to Politics: To break down barriers and provide opportunities for all citizens to engage with politics at various levels.
• Increased Representation: To advocate for a diverse and inclusive representation in our political institutions.
• Enhanced Engagement: To encourage active participation and collaboration between citizens and political parties.
• Training Future Political Actors: To nurture and support individuals who will become the change-makers of tomorrow.

We are eager to build “Change for Luxembourg” into a transformative movement that reflects the values and aspirations of all who call Luxembourg their home. Together, we will work towards a brighter and more inclusive political future.

Your support and involvement are crucial to the success of our movement. Let’s unite, inspire, and create a lasting impact for our nation, and Europe.

In unity and progress,

Christos Floros

In a recent interview with Le Quotidien newspaper, the founder of Change for Luxembourg, Change for Europe, Christos Floros, sheds light on the pressing need for political change in the country. This interview signifies the increasing recognition and impact of Christos Floros’ grassroots movement.

Floros’ commitment to making politics accessible to all, particularly in a country where half the population does not speak Luxembourgish, resonates deeply. His efforts to engage and inform through his Instagram account have gained significant traction, with over 5,000 followers embracing his daily stories and discussions on political matters.

The fact that Le Quotidien, a prominent newspaper, chose to interview Floros highlights the growing demand for a movement like Change for Luxembourg. It underlines the urgency for political progress and inclusive representation that truly reflects the diverse population of the country.

The journey towards political transformation may be gradual, but it is evident that Change for Luxembourg is steadily making its mark on the path to a more inclusive and engaged democracy.
