Slovenian Paneuropean Movement

The Slovenian Paneuropean Movement (SPM), founded in 1991, is a non-governmental organization fostering and spreading the idea of European unification and striving for putting it into effect. The organization is part of the International Paneuropean Union, aiming to unite similar movements throughout Europe. The idea was first born after World War I with the realization that war with its material and spiritual devastation had brought Europe to the edge of destruction and that war itself is a consequence of national egoism leading towards new catastrophes of global extent. World War II proved this prediction to be true. The activities of the SPG include organizing international conferences, round tables, seminars and publishing books. Through these activities, we have come to be seen as critical thinkers focusing on European affairs - from the past through the present to the future. SPM has following organization structure: Assembly, Management Board, Monitoring Committee and President. Main funding sources are project funds, membership fees and sponsor funds. Our main partners are other Paneuropean organizations accross the Europe, but are well cooperating with all NGOs and other entities that pursue the objective - strong, united and unified Europe.
