The project focuses on strengthening democratic citizenship in Ukraine by promoting and protecting the institutionalisation of democratic governance but also empowering democratic citizenship in civil society.
Ukraine is in the process of democratisation and European integration, which requires promotion of democratic institutions, norms and values within the political and civil society. The support from the European Union is a great opportunity for Ukraine. One major hinder for reforms is, however, the political legacy of limited understanding of democracy and democratic citizenship.
This project aims to develop a comprehensive training programme on Democratic Citizenship tailored for key Ukrainian stakeholders based on the Plan for Implementing the Concept of Civic Education Development in Ukraine until 2030. Activities include lectures, seminars and workshops providing hands-on learning experiences and practical skills development in the field of Good Governance and Democratic Institutions; Democratic Culture, Civic Identity and Engagement and EU Governance & European Citizenship.
