Hensigten er i højere grad at involvere borgerne i den europæiske integrationsproces ved at styrke beskyttelsen af deres rettigheder og fremme idéen om europæisk identitet ved at skabe en følelse af at høre til blandt Unionens borgere.
The intention is to associate the citizens with the process of European integration, giving them more involvement, strengthening the protection of their rights and promoting the idea of a European identity by means of the creation of a sense of belonging amongst the citizens of the Union.
