The webinar series was launched by Sven Giegold<\/a> during his time as an MEP for B\u00fcndnis90\/Die Gr\u00fcnen (The German Green Party). To ensure that Europe Calling could continue after Sven Giegold’s move to the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection, we founded Europe Calling e.V. together with 1,087 founding patrons<\/a> in January 2022. As a party-politically independent association, we have continued to run Europe Calling ever since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/europe-calling.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/europaen-solidarity-now_small-rahmen.jpg\")
