We work together across countries every day, but today, the RESPOND consortium met in person at the University of Bologna, sharing progress on our mission: strengthening democracy by addressing corruption and preventing organised crime.

Real discussions, real impact: research, cooperation,and shared values are key to protecting democratic systems across Europe.

The crypto industry's stablecoin bill is reportedly back on track to pass the Senate next week: https://prospect.org/blogs-and-newsletters/tap/2025-05-16-senate-democrats-trumps-crypto-corruption/

If you're represented by any of the following Democratic senators, call or email them in the next several days and put pressure on them to prevent the GENIUS Act from coming to the floor:

Ruben Gallego (Arizona)
Adam Schiff (California)
John Hickenlooper (Colorado)
Lisa Blunt Rochester (Delaware)
Raphael Warnock (Georgia)
Angela Alsobrooks (Maryland)
Catherine Cortez Masto (Nevada)
Andy Kim (New Jersey)
Ben Ray Luján (New Mexico)
Kirsten Gillibrand (New York)
Mark Warner (Virginia)

(Call your senators even if they're not on that list, but the bill needs support from at least 7 Democrats to pass.)

WP12 focuses on communicating, disseminating, and ensuring the long-term impact of RESPOND’s findings. The main objective is to share the project’s developments with a broad range of stakeholders, particularly society, and to ensure the knowledge generated has a lasting influence beyond the project’s duration. The work involves creating a comprehensive communication plan, maintaining a dynamic online presence, and organizing the final conference. It also includes establishing an open data repository on political corruption, developing a toolbox for co-creation activities to support anti-corruption initiatives, and conducting surveys to assess participants’ learning and expectations. Finally, the project aims to create a European Hub for Anti-Corruption Action to sustain collaboration and knowledge sharing after RESPOND’s conclusion.
