 Democrat aims to strengthen liberal democracy in the European Union by supporting its embedding and sustainability through participatory redesign and implementation of innovative and context-sensitive Education for Responsible Democratic Citizenship. |
Final Conference of the Democrat ProjectThe Democrat project is a highly important initiative aimed at strengthening the resilience and sustainability of democracy through education. Funded by the EC Horizon programme, this project has developed comprehensive curricula for Education for Democracy (EfD) based on a framework of responsible democratic competences. The project has tested these curricula through open, local, and innovative learning projects, and developed a robust toolbox to support transformative EfD practices across the EU and beyond. Now we want to announce the final conference of the Democrat project and invite you to join! 20–21 November 2025 Faculty of Economics, University of BarcelonaDiagonal, 690-696, 08034 Barcelona  Register now: https://www.activacongresos.com/forms/democracy/ Conference schedule: 20 November: 14:00–18:00 CET and 21 November: 09:00– 17:30 CETThe Democrat conference will explore the evolving role of civic and democratic education in fostering resilient democratic societies in Europe.

Education for Democracy is more than a subject, it is a pedagogical approach embracing co-creation, embodied learning, and mutual engagement. This conference aims to:  Showcase the achievements of grassroots initiatives in EfD Encourage meaningful political dialogue on democratic education Promote the scaling of innovative democratic practices across education systemsWe invite you to be part of this important conversation and to help shape the future of democratic education in Europe! |
New research explores the role of digital media in fostering Inclusion, Participation, and Peacebuilding across Europe The INCLUDE ME+ project proudly announces the release of its comprehensive Mediation in Media Study—an in-depth exploration of the current state of digital media in Europe. This newly published study, that examines how digital media is both shaping, and being shaped by, efforts to create safer, more inclusive online spaces across Europe, brings together two key research reports: A Desk Research Report, offering a detailed overview of the European digital media landscape, including current legislation, policy initiatives, and current challenges to an inclusive digital environment. A Participatory Action Research (PAR) Report, based on direct input from representatives of students, civil society organizations, digital media creators, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) and experts, highlighting real-life experiences, community challenges, and innovative practices in inclusive media-making. Together, these reports provide vital insights into how digital platforms can serve as spaces of visibility, safety, and voice for marginalized communities. The research was carried out by partners across Denmark, Finland, Germany, Spain, Turkey, and Ukraine, with additional EU-wide insights. “We believe that media can be a powerful force for social transformation,” says the INCLUDE ME+ consortium. “This study is a call to action for media professionals, students, educators, and civil society to rethink how we create and share content.”  Download the full study now: Mediation in Media Study The findings from this research will directly inform the upcoming INCLUDE ME+ educational programme, which will equip media professionals, HEI educators, students, and CSOs with the tools and strategies to create responsible, inclusive, and participatory media across Europe. Explore the findings. Rethink digital inclusion. Be part of the change. |
