Cos’è MERA25?
MERA25 è il nome condiviso da tutti i partiti politici nazionali di DiEM25, che ci permettono di partecipare direttamente alle elezioni. Perché non siamo solo un movimento di idee radicali. Ci occupiamo anche di mettere in pratica queste idee.
Questi partiti sono molto diversi da quelli vecchi e sono stati creati per sostituirli. Ogni decisione importante riguardante un partito MERA25 – dalle sue fondamenta, al suo programma, alla lista dei candidati – è soggetta al voto di tutti i nostri membri. Ovunque essi vivano, qualunque sia il loro passaporto. È il vero internazionalismo in azione.
Attualmente abbiamo tre partiti MERA25: in Grecia, in Germania e in Italia. Scopri di più su di loro qui di seguito.
