This is a micro-project supported by the Robert Bosch Foundation (RBS) through the IAC Berlin and BAN – the Alumni Network of the Robert Bosch Stiftung – 4Change has been part of BAN since 2017 when members of 4Change participated in the Education on Europe program on the role of citizenship education for European democracy.
Strong links connect us with other European organizations such as the Forum for Freedom in Education, from Croatia, or MultiKulti, from Bulgaria – and with other BAN alumni, a diverse group of researchers, educators, consultants and professionals linked to education, formal, non-formal and @Education for Global Citizenship.
This group of fellows has a shared vision: to increase the quality and quantity of citizenship education in Europe, valuing experience in a democratic society, governed by the @fundamental European values and human rights.
Since the program, we have maintained these ties and sought to create a vibrant community where educators, people linked to politics or civil society organizations can collaborate and strengthen their practice of civic and democratic education.
From November 21 to 23 we are organizing the meeting: “Europe, Democracy and our Values – Educating about what, who, how and what for?” – will be three intense days in Brussels, with meetings with think tanks and moments of reflection on these post-election times, when the new European Commission and Parliament are confirmed. Times to store up energy for the road ahead: How is European democracy doing and where is it going? How can we support each other at this new juncture – and how can we work together?
We’ll tell you all about it in an online meeting at BAN at the beginning of December!
