Thirty-seven European groups signed up to the International Planned Parenthood - European Network’s petition to members of the Convention on the Future of Europe about the functioning of a participatory democracy under Title VI (namely Articles 33 to 37).
IPPF-EN says that these groups are concerned about Draft Article 37, which incorporates Declaration No 11 annexed to the Treaty of Amsterdam on the recognition of the status of churches and non-confessional organisations and introduces an additional paragraph regarding a structured dialogue of the European Institutions with those churches and organisations.
