The Decolonial Europe Day is an initiative that uses the occasion of Europe Day (9 May every year) to bring together existing decolonising initiatives, civil society organisations and other actors around the common project of decolonising Europe, understood as an ongoing process. Our intention is to create a space for exchange on how to decolonise Europe, to amplify decolonial voices in and on Europe, to support the creation of synergies and to make this type of conversation more mainstream in Europe, with the ultimate purpose of dismantling and replacing colonial power structures. Following the first two editions in 2023 and 2024, the third edition of Decolonial Europe Day will take place online on 9 May 2025. 

The 2025 edition of the Decolonial Europe Day is the first one organised by the Decolonial Europe Collective (DEC), a newly founded network of organisations and individuals that grew out of the Decolonial Europe Day initiative.
