transform! europe invites to a reception on 17 December, will conduct a social science survey among the delegates and will be present with a stall.

 

The Party of the European Left (EL) hold its 5th Congress from 15 to 18 December in Berlin, Germany, gathering delegations from all its parties to decide on the political focus for the next three-year term.

The EL Congress addresses important issues such as the creation of a broad left-wing front to stand against fascism and the far-right, the fight against tax evasion and the rupture with the negotiations of TTIP, TISA and CETA. According to the EL statutes, the Congress also elects the new ruling bodies and it decides on the accession of new member parties, observers and partners.
