Mission and Objectives

Aiming to break down the barriers created by national media, cafebabel.com is the first online magazine of its type. Published in seven languages English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Catalan and Polish the site presents its readers with an insight into European current affairs from a trans-national perspective.
At a time when the European Union is expanding and playing an ever more important role in our everyday lives, the evolution of a European identity is still in its beginning stages. As a forum for reflection and analysis, cafebabel.com encourages its readers to think as Europeans, bringing European politics back to the people.

Main Projects / Activities

Cafebabel.com revolutionizes European media through participatory journalism, providing a unique platform of expression for all citizens. Café babel.com’s aim is to stimulate and develop European public opinion through two distinct but closely related missions. The online magazine – cafebabel.com – offers every week analyses of current affairs from a unique, European perspective. Secondly, at grassroots level café babel’s network, actively promotes this perspective through debates, conferences and other events organized in towns and cities across Europe.
