Europe for Citizens supports activities to increase awareness and citizens' understanding of the EU, its values and history, such as the remembrance of Europe’s past and partnerships between cities (town-twinning). The programme will also help people become more engaged in civic and democratic activities through debates and discussions on EU-related issues.The programme consists of the following two strands: "Remembrance and European citizenship"; "Democratic engagement and civic participation". The two strands are complemented by horizontal actions for analysis, dissemination and exploitation of project results ("Valorisation" actions).

It will also provide a high level of protection and information to consumers whilst taking into account the environment, competition, growth and jobs. The programme will also aim at improving the effectiveness of official controls and other official activities carried out by the Member States to ensure the correct application of EU agri-food chain rules.

By promoting health, encouraging health innovation, increasing the sustainability of health systems and responding effectively to cross-border health threats, the new programme follows the principles and objectives set in the EU Health Strategy. It also builds on the achievements of the previous health programmes and brings forward the EU 2020 Strategy.

The programme will support tens of thousands of artists, cultural professionals and cultural organisations in the performing arts, fine arts, publishing, film, TV, music, interdisciplinary arts, heritage, and the video games industry, allowing them to operate across Europe, to reach new audiences and to develop the skills that are needed in the digital age. By helping European cultural works to reach new audiences in other countries, the new programme will also contribute to safeguarding and promoting Europe's cultural and linguistic diversity.

The programme aims to make sure that EU legislation in civil and criminal justice is effectively applied. This will help ensure proper access to justice for people and businesses in cross-border legal cases in Europe and support EU actions to tackle drugs and crime.

The programme helps to make people's rights and freedoms effective in practice by making them better known and more consistently applied across the EU.
