Accessing Futurium

The platform is fully open and free to use, requiring no membership fees or subscriptions. 

To get started, visit the Futurium website at https://futurium.ec.europa.eu.

You can browse most content as an anonymous visitor without creating an account. 

However, registering for a free account unlocks additional features including the ability to join groups, participate in discussions, and contribute ideas. 

Language options 

You can change the language of the Futurium platform by selecting a different language option at the top of the website, to the left of the search bar. 

Please note that changing the platform language will adjust the interface language, but it will not automatically translate the content within the groups.

To translate posts within a group, navigate to the post you wish to translate and click the "Translate this page" link. This will provide an on-the-fly translation. Please allow a few moments for the translation to appear, depending on the length of the post. Currently, it is not possible to translate all content automatically. However, we are continuously working on enhancing our translation services.

Multilingual search feature

The search feature supports all available languages on the site. If content exists in multiple languages, such as French, German, or Spanish, searching in those languages will return the relevant results.

Please note that multilingual search is available only to logged-in members.
