In some cases, the European Commission may propose new legislation on the theme. 2014: This year, which will see the election of a new European Parliament and the inauguration of a new European Commission, has not been assigned a specific theme. Instead, various projects linked with the 2013 European Year of Citizens will continue into 2014. These will include a particular focus on European Parliament elections and democratic participation. 2015: European Year of Development |
