According the [[European Union]] website, '''European values''' consist of
*Human dignity
Human dignity is inviolable. It must be respected, protected and constitutes the real basis of fundamental rights.
*Freedom
[[Freedom of movement]] gives [[citizen]]s the [[right]] to move and reside freely within the Union. [[Individual freedom]]s such as [[respect]] for private life, [[freedom of thought]], [[religion]], [[assembly]], expression and information are protected by the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.
*Democracy
The functioning of the [[EU]] is founded on representative [[democracy]]. A European citizen automatically enjoys [[political]] [[rights]]. Every [[adult]] EU citizen has the right to stand as a [[candidate]] and to [[vote]] in [[election]]s to the [[European Parliament]]. EU citizens have the right to stand as a candidate and to vote in their country of residence, or in their country of origin.
*Equality
[[Equality]] is about [[equal rights]] for all citizens before the [[law]]. The [[principle]] of equality between [[women]] and [[men]] underpins all European [[policies]] and is the basis for European [[integration]]. It applies in all areas. The principle of equal pay for equal work became part of the [[Treaty of Rome]] in 1957.
*Rule of law
The EU is based on the [[rule of law]]. Everything the EU does is founded on [[treaties]], voluntarily and democratically agreed by its EU countries. Law and [[justice]] are upheld by an [[independent judiciary]]. The EU countries gave final [[jurisdiction]] to the [[European Court of Justice]] - its judgments have to be respected by all.
(Human rights
[[Human rights]] are protected by the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights. These cover the right to be [[free]] from [[discrimination]] on the basis of [[sex]], [[racial]] or [[ethnic]] origin, religion or belief, [[disability]], [[age]] or [[sexual orientation]], the right to the protection of your personal data, and the right to get access to justice.
The EU’s values are laid out in article 2 of the [[Lisbon Treaty]] and the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.
