What can you do?
Your voice is louder than you think
Change doesn’t start with politicians. It starts with people who refuse to stay quiet.
This page is to explain what can, in fact, be done. We know the problems, we can name them. That’s not enought no more. Here we say what we can do about the things we know are wrong.
Petitions
A petition is not just a signature. It’s a number. When enough people sign, it becomes impossible to ignore. The best thing is that its impact can last for years.
The smallest action with the largest reach
Find the information about petitions relevant to your country through the button below. Sign in, ask people to do the same. Suddenly, you can see thirty seconds becoming a movement.
Awareness is not enough

You feel something

You see the problem

So. . . What can you do?

Sharing is reach
Every time you share a reliable article, a petition, a video or even a No To Apathy post you put it in front of someone who might not have seen it. You are not just reposting something you’re choosing what information travels and what disappears. That is (y)our power.
Use it deliberately.

Misinformation vs truth
Which one travels faster?
Misinfo. peaks at 1500 people in 10h
Misinformation is
6x faster to spread
60 hours to reach the same
Real people share it
not bots - it’s us
False stories are
70% more likely to be shared
It’s about being
esponsible
Fighting misinformation isn’t about being right.
Before you share something, check it. Takes sixty seconds. Use any tool you want to verify what you’re sharing, but make sure it is true. Or even real. Check the source, look for the original article. And if you see misinformation from someone you know — respond calmly with a source. Not an argument.
A source.

Being present is already an act of resistance
Being out there present trying something is crucial for change. Marches, panels, screenings, pub quizzes, community meetings, local activations or volunteering. All of these are spaces where presence matters. The number of people in a room changes what is possible to achieve in the same room. Showing up is being active, precisely what we’re trying to do. Be more present and empathic.
What we can offer
Support • Promote Dialogue
Support and donate
Money is not the only way to help, but it is still one of the most direct
There is a lot of organisations fighting for the things we all care about: press freedom, human rights, climate or civic education, you choose. If you’re interested to contribute to any valid and important cause check who we support and maybe you’ll find something worthy.
Through Dialogue
The most underrated thing we can do
Try to disconnect from the online world and talk. In person. Engage without fear, in work, at dinner, with friends or family, with people who disagree with you, it doesn’t matter. Try to create a real conversation, with curiosity not aggression. Ask real questions, listen to the full answer and share what you actually think. The goal is understanding not winning.
Civic & Democratic action
Civic Action • Democratic Action
Democracy Doesn’t protect itself. People Do.
Civic and democratic action isn’t something only institutions do. It’s something people do. In how you vote, who you hold accountable and whether you show up when it counts.
-
Local council, regional and EU elections shape your daily life more than people realise. Low turnout in these is exactly how disengaged voices end up making decisions for everyone.
-
Most are open to the public and most are nearly empty. Showing up — even just once — changes who city officials think is watching.
-
A real letter or email from a constituent gets noticed more than you'd expect. Representatives track what their voters are actually asking about.
-
Collective voice is louder than individual voice. Find a cause you care about locally and find the group already organising around it.
-
It is a legal, protected democratic tool — not a fringe activity. Showing up in numbers is one of the oldest and most effective forms of civic pressure.
-
The EU, national governments and city councils regularly open consultations on new laws and policies. Most close with almost no public input. Yours could be one of very few.
If you want to go further than individual action, these organisations are fighting these exact battles professionally, every single day. Follow them, support them, or use their research to inform your own civic action above.
