The four contenders in the Green Primary will be taking part in two separate debates this week, in Prague and London. The Prague debate, hosted by the Czech Green party Strana zelených will take place on Friday 17 January. The London debate, hosted by the Green Party of England and Wales, will take place the next day, on Saturday 18 January.

Europe has failed to address it's perceived democratic deficit, and Eurosceptic parties are grabbing onto this to push a radical, populist, anti-European agenda. These debates an opportunity to show that Europe is stronger than ever – people in every single member state are engaging with the Green Primary contenders, and voting. The answer isn't less Europe – it's more.

The EGP and our member parties are holding a series of debates and online hangouts so voters can make an informed decision whom they choose to be the two Green Leading Candidates for the European Elections 2014. Until 28 January 2014 anyone in the EU who is 16 or older and supports Green values can vote in our EU-wide online Green Primary, and help decide who will be the hearts and faces of the Green campaign.
