40 European parties united against austerity, to stop militarisation and win the future

War and the militarisation of society, rising energy prices and industrial crisis: Europe is at a crossroads. On 17 and 18 April, Brussels hosted the congress of the European Left. 106 delegates from all over Europe came together to develop a common response to the situation and decide on guidelines for the next three years. The PVDA-PTB became a member of the European Left in 2025, and has since played an active role.

Global Progressive Mobilisation in Barcelona.

Sánchez seeks to rally global left against rise of far right Politico Europe.

(This has not been widely, if at all, reported in the UK, including on the left.)

Barcelona summit of left-wing leaders aims to counter the advances of populist and nationalist movements.

“More than 3,000 participants from over 100 organizations are convening in Barcelona for the launch of the “Global Progressive Mobilization,” a new initiative aimed at strengthening international cooperation among left-leaning parties and activists.

The experiment is about organizing internationally, Stefan Löfven, president of the European Socialist Party (PES), told POLITICO. “Democracy is increasingly under pressure, and progressives are stepping up globally.”

The site: Global Progressive Mobilisation.

“As the world faces critical turmoil, the Global Progressive Mobilisation (GPM) offers a necessary alternative to conservative and far-right forces. This platform aims to make progressive solutions visible and credible, proving they are the key to humanity’s prosperity. By uniting regions and generations, we will defend democracy and advance social justice. That is why we will come together in Barcelona, Spain, on 17–18 April 2026 for the inaugural Global Progressive Mobilisation — to turn conviction into action and ambition into results.”

Socialists and Democrats.

The S&D Enlarged Bureau delegation will participate in a range of debates alongside more than 3,000 participants from over 100 progressive organisations worldwide. Notable participants include the Prime Minister of Spain, Pedro Sánchez; the President of Brazil, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva; the President of Colombia, Gustavo Petro; the President of Uruguay, Yamandú Orsi; the Vice-President of Ghana, Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang; the Leader of the Opposition in India, Rahul Gandhi; the President of the European Council, António Costa; Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Ressa; the President of the Center for American Progress, Neera Tanden; and the Mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, who will join online.
