The Last Generation wants to run in the 2024 European elections. The group, founded in 2021 after a hunger strike, had mainly organized road blockades with glued activists for two years.
A vote share of around 0.5 percent is enough in the European elections, which is around 250,000 votes. Now there is initially a ‘community challenge’: an attempt is being made to find 100 volunteers for the campaign internally and to collect 50,000 euros, said Henning Jeschke, one of the group's founders.
