ABOGANDO POR UNA MAYOR TRANSPARENCIA EN LA UE

ARROJAMOS LUZ SOBRE LAS INSTITUCIONES Y LA TOMA DE DECISIONES DE LA UE

PROMOVEMOS LA TRANSPARENCIA EN LA TOMA DE DECISIONES...

porque los ciudadanos tienen derecho a saber cómo se toman las decisiones de la UE
La transparencia en la toma de decisiones de la UE es esencial para garantizar la rendición de cuentas de los funcionarios públicos e incrementar la participación ciudadana. También hacemos campaña para conseguir leyes más firmes de transparencia del lobby, la apertura de los diálogos tripartitos y una mejora del mantenimiento de los registros por parte de todas las instituciones de la UE.

HACEMOS FRENTE A LA APLICACIÓN ABUSIVA DE LAS EXCEPCIONES...

porque las instituciones de la UE deben aplicar las excepciones al acceso en casos limitados
Empleamos las leyes de transparencia de la UE (Reglamento 1049/2001) para recurrir las decisiones de las instituciones europeas que limitan el acceso a los documentos y presentamos recursos y denuncias ante el Defensor del Pueblo Europeo o los Tribunales.

LUCHAMOS CONTRA LOS OBSTÁCULOS PRÁCTICOS AL ACCESO...

para que todo el mundo pueda presentar solicitudes de acceso de manera simple y directa
Luchamos contra los obstáculos establecidos por las instituciones europeas presentando recursos y argumentos basados en evidencias, ya sea para eliminar, por ejemplo, la obligación de proporcionar una dirección postal o una identificación personal para poder registrar las peticiones o ¡ incluso para poder utilizar el email!
