The EPP Manifesto outlines the basic principles of the Party summary.
The EPP Manifesto outlines the basic principles of the Party summarising who we are, what our
values are, what challenges are we facing and what vision we have for the future. The
Manifesto was developed in parallel to the EPP Platform document within the EPP Working
Group 1 for “European Policy”.
The EPP Platform is the core programme of our party outlining our main values,
explaining the challenges our society is facing and presenting our vision for the
future of European Union.

by EPP President Wilfried MARTENS ?and EPP Vice President Peter HINTZE. The Working
Group consists of delegates of EPP member parties who prepared and worked?on this
document for more than two years and received input?from the drafting committee as
well as senior and young experts. The document was adopted at the 2012 EPP Congress
in Bucharest, thus replacing the Basic Programme of Athens from 1992.
