Our priorities
-
Democracy
We believe in democracy as one of the cornerstones of a free and just society. Democracy includes more than just elections – a strong and fair institutional framework, free and diverse media, human rights, and economic and social equality are all crucial. It is especially important that our political structures are inclusive and give a voice to minorities and the disenfranchised
-
Social Rights
Housing, free education or healthcare, are the basic human rights. Housing needs to be affordable, accessible and adequate, modern education free and inclusive, and healthcare offer free, accessible, and comprehensive services, including mental and reproductive health. We call for people-centric spatial planning, robust youth policies to ensure that all can live dignified and empowered lives.
-
Economy
We need just, green and democratic economy, with flexible and inclusive social security systems, strong labor rights and workplace democracy. We support tax justice, reform in regulatory institutions and public investment in sustainable infrastructure and public services. Economy needs to be reimagined beyond GDP, integrating social and environmental well-being, and ensuring a resilient economy that benefits all.
-
Climate and Environment
We support urgent and comprehensive approach climate and biodiversity crisises, with both mitigation and adaptation strategies. We support just transition that secures the livelihoods of those affected by climate change, ensuring that no one is left behind. The recognition of climate justice is central, especially in addressing the intersection of environmental issues with social and economic inequalities across Eastern Europe.

Foreign Policy & Security
We need progressive foreign policy grounded in democracy, peace and ecological responsibility, standing firmly against imperialism and authoritarianism, especially Russian imperialism. We believe the end goal of the foreign policy is that global affairs are conducted in a spirit of peace, solidarity and fairness. However, in current reality, there are violent political actors that want to solve political conflicts by force. We need to counteract them and build resilience against them.
