Europe in the lead: progressive solutions to global challenges.
10-11 November 2023, Málaga
Join us in Málaga from 10-11 November for the 2023 PES Congress.
Hosted with support from the governing Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party (PSOE) – a PES full member party – the PES Congress will welcome progressive heads of state and government, European Commissioners, party leaders, activists, and supporters.
Europe is just months away from the next European elections, with this Congress coming at a moment of fundamental change for Europe, it’s neighbourhood, and the entire world.
The PES political family meets to set policies to address deep shifts in international security, the soaring cost of living, climate change and social challenges.
Stay tuned for more speakers to be announced soon
Sustainability is a priority for the PES. We promote and push for sustainable actions not only in our policies but also in our work and the organisation of the PES Congress.
In setting up the event, we have taken into consideration the impact we are making on the environment, by taking into account the design and management of the event, its location and its impact on the city it is taking place in. The PES Congress event is reducing to the maximum the usage of paper, has its branding in a predominantly digital format and for its printed branding materials we have chosen to use water-based printing on environmentally friendly materials. The PES goal is to reduce as much as possible the carbon footprint of its Congress.
Europe in the lead: progressive solutions to global challenges. is organised by the Party of European Socialists.
The PES brings together the socialist, social democratic, labour and democratic parties from all over the European Union, the UK and Norway. Together with 32 full member parties and 14 associate and 13 observer parties, we fight for a better and more progressive Europe.
