"The EU should do more to promote democracy, rule of law and fundamental rights across the EU, including through support to civil society organisations.
MEPs endorsed on Thursday the position of the Civil Liberties Committee to triple the funds allocated in the long-term EU budget (2021-2027) for the Rights and Values Programme, up to 1.834 billion euros (the European Commission had proposed €642 million)."
