Today’s trade and investment agreements give transnational corporations far reaching special rights and access to a parallel justice system to enforce them.
We call on the EU and Member States to end these privileges by withdrawing from existing trade and investment agreements containing them, and not to conclude any such agreements in the future.
We also call on the EU and Member States to support the achievement of a UN binding treaty to hold transnational corporations to account for human rights violations, and end their impunity.
The EU and Member States must enshrine in their laws the duties of corporations to respect human rights and the environment throughout their operations worldwide.
People affected by corporate human rights violations must have access to justice.
Material and coordination for our thousands of volunteers across Europe and beyond.
Other political movements and parties have hundreds, and sometimes thousands, of employees. DiEM25 has about 15 staff (some full time and others part-time) to support a wide variety of projects across Europe, making your donation a great investment in a highly efficient, not-for-profit organisation.
DiEM25 gets no corporate money, no public funds or government grants of any kind – we depend exclusively on small, individual donations.
Please contact us at info@diem25.org if you wish to discuss other ways to contribute or payment methods.
