Flash Eurobarometer 294: European Union Citizenship
Description
Although the majority of EU citizens claim familiarity with the term “citizen of the European Union”, only 43% say they know its meaning and less than one-third of respondents from the 27 EU countries consider themselves well informed about their rights as citizens of the European Union. There is hardly any confusion as to how European Union citizenship can be “obtained”. Respondents were most familiar with their residence rights as EU citizens. Roughly 7 in 10 were aware of their newly established right to participate in a Citizens initiative, a request signed by at least 1 million EU citizens inviting the European Commission to propose a new policy measure. The knowledge about the right to obtain consular help or protection while being abroad from other Member States embassies remained virtually unchanged compared to the previous study in 2007.
