Επικυρωτικό Συμβούλιο
Κάποιες αποφάσεις ξεπερνούν τη δικαιοδοσία της Συντονιστικής Επιτροπής. Καθώς αυτές ενδέχεται μερικές φορές να πρέπει γρήγορα να επικυρωθούν,όμως δεν είναι δυνατόν κινητοποιηθούν όλα τα μέλη του DiEM25 προκειμένου να ψηφίσουν μέσα σε ασφυκτικές προθεσμίες, θεσπίστηκε ένα επικυρωτικό Συμβούλιο, αποτελούμενο από 100 μέλη, τα οποία εκλέγονται με κλήρωση. Μπορείτε να λάβετε σχετικές πληροφορίες στον ιστότοπο του κινήματος και συγκεκριμένα στα Organising Principles (Οργανωτικές Αρχές).
According to the new Organising Principles, any DiEM25 member with voting rights (i.e. verified identity, up-to-date membership fee) can be randomly picked for the Validating Council at any time. You do not need to apply anymore.

Viva Diem25 with a ingenious proposal on the Ukraine war. Makes me proud. |
| Gea Mulder | Πορτογαλία | Dear Diem25 people, My name is Gea Mulder. Originally I come from Holland, but have been living in Portugal for 20 years now. I am 63 years old.

As an administrator I have been working in a Southafrican political refugee camp in the '80s, at the university in Holland in the '90s and running a campsite with my husband in Portugal the last 20 years. I want the world not only to move the focus from money to nature, but continue this path to synergy with nature in which every person takes his responsibility and is learnt how to do that. |
| Roald Neuteboom | Ολλανδία | Hello, I am Roald, an engaged citizen trying to make the the world a better happier place. As soon as I heard what DiEM25 was about I knew that I align with its values and goals. I hope you will all join me in this mission. Carpe DiEM! |

| Thomas Psaltou | Γερμανία | I was born in Greece and grew up in Germany. Early in my youth I had to learn what exclusion and racism means for someone who grows up as a migrant in a country that is not his home country. With this knowledge in my heart I grew up and searched for recognition. I found it in wonderful people in Germany who stand against racism and exclusion. And since then DiEM 25 has been a whole movement. It will be a pleasure for me to be part of it. Übersetzt mit DeepL https://www.deepl.com/app/?utm_medium=android-share |
