- Civilization (art, education, science, European society)
- Community (participation, social involvement)
- Democracy (participation, transparency, self-determination)
- Ecology (environmental protection, energy)
- Human rights (women's affairs, equality, minority rights)
- Work (jobs, labor market)
- Prosperity (business location, technology, finance)
