Euro Prospects is a new kind of media platform: open, independent, and built by makers from across the continent. We’re not a traditional newsroom. We’re a growing community of writers, analysts, thinkers, and storytellers who care about Europe — and know how to tell a good story.

Our goal? To make European politics and policy not just understandable, but compelling. Because liberal democracy doesn’t thrive on indifference — it thrives on participation and deliberation. And the EU’s biggest democratic challenge isn’t primarily institutional. It’s cultural. It’s the lack of a true European public sphere — one where people from Lisbon to Helsinki can follow, debate, and care about EU-level governance .

That’s where we come in. We publish slow, deep journalism — the kind that gives background, context, and perspective you won’t find in your daily news scroll. Our stories go beyond the headline, often into the niche and unexpected, because we believe that’s where real insights live.

We want to spark curiosity. Fuel interest. And yes, encourage scrutiny — because that’s how democracy works. We’re committed to doing this right: ethical journalism, clear transparency, AI in the open — always explained, never hidden.

This is for the curious. The skeptics. The thinkers. The youth that want more than TikTok takes, and the adults who still believe the EU can work — if we keep paying attention.

We’re building a European public sphere — one story at a time.
