Digital democracy - It’s not just television debates and the rise of the LibDems that has made this election different. The extent to which social media has played a part in campaigning can be debated, but there can be no denying that the landscape is very different from 2005. Echo Research will be sharing some major new research on influence, media consumption habits and how the three main parties are fairing in the social media space.

European Elections - MEPs and Constituent CommunicationFTI Consulting FR
The EU is going through an existential crisis. Support for the EU is at an all-time low across a swathe of Member States. The campaigns for the forthcoming European Parliament elections (22-25 May) have represented an important opportunity for current and candidate MEPs to explain to citizens what the EU is and does, and the benefits of membership. But has that opportunity been squandered? FTI Consulting examine the results of some proprietary research conducted at how successful MEPs have been in communicating about the EU in the run up to the elections.
More than two-thirds of young people across the European Union (EU) have a positive view of the bloc and the values that it stands for such as peace, diversity and unity. Only 14 percent have a negative view of the EU, according to a new survey which asked young people from across the 28 member states what the Union means to them, and what the top priorities should be for European leaders over the next five years.
The Erasmus Generation Survey, carried out by ThinkYoung, a Brussels-based youth think tank, and Burson-Marsteller, a leading global public affairs and public relations firm, invited 1,500 young Europeans to respond to a 15-question online questionnaire. The aim is to highlight the values of people aged 18 to 40 and to contribute to the direction of future European policy by calling on those in office to act.

Based on responses from more than 1,500 professionals from 37 countries, this is the most comprehensive analysis of the European market until now. It identifies new challenges for the field of communication 2008-2011.
Some of the insights are:
- communication management plays a major role in European organisations, but its decision-making power is weaker in Europe than in the USA;
- professionals expect that by 2011 corporate communication will succeed today`s forerunner marketing/consumer communication as the most important field of practice;
- internal/change communication and sustainability/CSR are predicted to be the fastest-growing disciplines within communication management in Europe;
- professionals see three major challenges for the future: linking their function to business strategies, dealing with sustainable development and social responsibility, and coping with the digital evolution and the social web
The study has been coordinated by Prof. Dr. Ansgar Zerfss, European Public Relations and Research Association (EUPRERA), University St. Gallen, in association with EACD and Communication Director magazine..

The ComGap 2014 study explores communicating leadership and social media communications from the perspectives of communication / public relations professionals perceptions and the general public in 10 European countries. It is based on thorough academic standards, combining a representative poll among the general public in those countries with a survey of 1,346 communication professionals in the same markets. The public poll samples the views of 4,054 citizens and is weighted for age and gender. The survey of communication professionals looks at the trends of communication management across Europe.
The study has been authored by Professors Ansgar Zerfass (Leipzig / Oslo), Ralph Tench (Leeds), Angeles Moreno (Madrid), Piet Verhoeven (Amsterdam), Dejan Vercic (Llubljana) and Joachim Klewes (Düsseldorf), supported by Markus Wiesenberg (Leipzig).

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

European Parliament 2009 elections: …is it a Young vote?

Survey # 7
European Parliament 2009 elections:
…is it a Young vote?
Main Results Report
September 2008

2. Survey # 7 – Are you going to vote?
Aim of the study
Out 7th survey was launched in occasion of the European Parliament elections, being the latters the latest chance to tell
EU powers what young people expect for their generation; so, we simply asked ourselves what were young Europeans'
aims, expectations and engagement in occasion of these elections.
This survey aimed at answering to this main question, in order to gather materials to be communicated to the newly
elected and give them some hints to work with for this first summer and fall of 2009.
The survey
Our survey was launched on June the 2nd and was closed on July 10th .
The questionnaire was launched on line, placed on our web portal (www.thinkyoung.eu) and spread via e-mail among our
community.
The sample
The sample of respondents is composed by around 150 respondents, not equally distributed among men and women: in
fact, for the first time since the beginning of our think tank surveying activity, men represented the majority of
respondents, with a percentage of 62%; moreover, they mainly declared to come from 20 over 27 EU countries reached by
our e-mail sending (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Lithuania, Luxemburg,
Netherland, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, , Slovenia, Spain).

3. Survey # 7 – Are you going to vote?
Another important observation is that most of the sample (83%) declared to have a high level of education, having
reached at least a bachelor, and the same percentage declare to know who is Mr. Barroso;
hence, half of respondents sent us back their answers within one week from the launch of the survey, so that we can
affirm that highly educated European young people seem to be interested to the topic, or, at least, they seem to be
actively involved in expressing their opinion related to the topic, independently from their specific interest or opinion.
Age distribution is reported by the graph below, showing the usual concentration between 22 and 30 years old, again
consolidating during the subministration of our surveys, being individuals of these ages the main target of our Think Tank.
Figure 1: age distribution of the sample; years

4. Survey # 7 – Are you going to vote?
Main results of the Survey
1. Vote and information
Among our sample, a major percentage of 77%, actually not being such a surprising one, declares to be planning to vote
or having voted for the European Parliament Elections; the rest of the sample has been asked why about the negative
response and, as the graph below shows, the reasons reported seem to be very interesting for our investigation.
Figure 2: reasons for not planning to vote/ not having voted
In fact, the low level of information is a motivation for only one quarter of the respondents, whilst not feeling the
relevance of the vote from a personal point of view or not giving importance to European topics is a valid reason only for
12% of the sample. The majority, represented by over 60%, declares to have other motivations, among which logistic
difficulty are the most cited (living abroad, travelling for working reasons, missed any deadline for having the right to
vote abroad).
Though the last data seem to be encouraging in an ideal path towards a more conscious European population with regards
to vote and participation to European policy, the level of promotion and information about the EU Parliament elections is
not felt as sufficient by the majority of the sample. In fact, around 59% of respondents think that in their country EU

5. Survey # 7 – Are you going to vote?
elections have not been promoted in the right way: this figure, anyway, can be interpreted also as a sign of a more
demanding/ exigent population in terms of information and communication from the EU Institution about EU policy
making. This interpretation of data can be mirrored by some of the suggestions that respondents have sent to newly
elected Parliament members, as explained in the conclusion paragraph of this report.
2. Young people and the content of EU Parliament work: past and future
The second part of our survey aimed at investigating opinions about the content of EU Parliament policy making, and its
reflection over young people lives. In fact, only 11% of the sample declared that that EU Parliament job hasn’t affected
their lives in the past few years, so that we could affirm that young people actually feel the image of the Parliament as a
working institution, at least over important topics for their personal lives.
Figure 3: level of reflection of EU Parliament work over
respondents’ lives
4|Page
www.thinkgyoung.eu
6. Survey # 7 – Are you going to vote?
This last good result, anyway, has to be analyzed looking at how the non “Not at all” part of the sample is composed: in
fact, 52% declared that EU Parliament work has affected their lives but just a little and, most important, not enough as
expected: this is another sign of the fact that our sample seems to be conscious of the power owned by the Parliament
and of the opportunity that it has to give solutions to people’s needs…and, therefore, what we see here, is again a
demand of action and higher involvement of the members of the Parliament.
Then, we investigated over specific topics of the past and future, dealing with the Parliament policy; with regards to the
past work done by the Institution, the 4 freedoms (movement of persons, goods, capital, services), Euro as a single
currency and the Roaming regulations are recognized as the thee most important successes of the last formation of the
EU Parliament (with a percentage ranging from 24% to 35% of the sample).
About the future members, Education seems to be the most requested argument to deal with in the next four years,
according to our young respondents, with a percentage of more than 25%.
Finally, when asked about a single, specific cause to be willing to support during the next cycle of the EU Parliament, the
majority of the sample prefers a Common system of laws all over Europe, with a percentage of 33%, a topic that is
followed only by Free wireless internet connection in all 27 countries and the approval of the European Constitution.
3. Suggestions and demands to newly elected EU Parliament members
As a conclusion, we asked for some specific, textual suggestions directed to the newly elected, in order to directly give
voice to Young European people, with the aim of actually bring these citations to some Parliament member within the
next autumn, before the end of 2009.

7. Survey # 7 – Are you going to vote?
Here follows a list of a synthesis of the most interesting suggestions and opinions: again, young Europeans seem to agree
in asking more reactivity, more communication and information, more action and more listening in order to see as fully
accomplished the role given to the Parliament by the European Union:
More information and communication at a local level about the work of the EU Parliament and the powers owned
by this Institution;
More responsibility to be taken by the members: higher presence at the sessions and higher effort to be involved in
the works;
Cutting costs of the Institution as a whole, in general enhancing efficiency and efficacy of the sessions;
More intense interaction with local populations, in order to give a solution to true local needs;
Thinking and Working as a more European Institution, in the sense of being united in the setting of goals and in the
definition of the path to reach them;
Building a common future for Europe, on the basis of a common history and united roots.
