Creating a Multimedia Documentation
Tandem Europe is a programme that strengthens Trans-European collaborations towards social change. The programme has developed special tools and methods to facilitate and develop these partnerships. For the first round of Tandem Europe between 2015 and 2017, Citizens For Europe was in charge of documenting the collaboration stories with the aim to showcase the Tandem methods to a broader audience, to share the learnings of the participants and show how these methods strengthen collaboration, as well as to inspire other cultural managers to replicate those methods for their own collaboration.October 24, 2018
Kick-Off #ViRaLfonds: Together against racism!
On September 22 and 23, 2018, the kick-off meeting of our pilot project Action Fund ViRaL - Strengthening Diversity, Combating Racism, Engaging Locally - brought together representatives of the 10 funded projects from all over Germany. In addition to the exchange with and between the participants, a debate on racism and empowerment played a central role. Here we report on these two exciting days.September 10, 2018
European Democracy Network
For the defense of freedom, democracy and fundamental rights!
Democracy and its underlying fundamental rights are in decline in Europe. More and more right-wing populist parties and leaders are taking over governments and dismantling the democratic constitutional state – even in the so-called consolidated democracies. In this context, we believe it is necessary to support activists and initiatives who are under threat. As transnational partnership we initiated the European Democracy Network (EDN) to support, empower and connect activists who stand against the erosion of democracy and fundamental rights, and advocate for legal, political, social or climate justice. We believe that we can only encounter the shrinking of civic space in transnational solidarity and across issues.September 8, 2018
