 **Jan Mareš**
-I am studying Central and Eastern European Studies in Frankfurt am Oder and I am originally from Ústí. In my studies I am interested in Central European history, culture and pilots, mostly in the "Sudeten Germans" and other displaced groups (Transylvanian Saxons, Silesians, Prussians), and more recently also in the national conflicts during the Austrian rule.
+Hi there! My name is Jan Mareš and I have been an active Pirate for 4 years now. As a scholar of Central European history (who makes a living selling old Czech cars to Germans, but let’s not get hung up on the details) it is only natural that I serve my party as a coordinator for all things German and also as a volunteer in the PPEU Board.
-At the level of the PP-EU, I am working on its transformation into a genuine European political party. To do this, we need to have enough parties with representation in European, national or regional parliaments.
+My vision for the PPEU is that of a functional and registered European party with a small but professional and dedicated staff that will facilitate our communication and integration across a great many Pirate parties in Europe. In the last year, we have made some great strides towards this goal and I would love to see it finished.
+My other goal would be to get the newly founded „Policy Coordination Group“ working, which unfortunately I wasn’t able to do so far, due to lack of interest of many national parties and due to unclear goal setting on my part.
-I would like to ensure continuity in the PP-EU of the activities that I have invested in - especially the expansion of the PP-EU to include non-party members. If there is an acceptance of observer members, I will be happy to join the media group coordinated by Lukáš on a permanent basis to integrate our partners and their media successes and failures.
+It is absolutely crucial, especially now that the PPCZ is a junior government party, as sometimes it will co-author decisions that might conflict with other member parties’ views.
