DLEARNING- Democracy Learning in the process of lifelong learning in Europe
This learning partnership project which is designed for three years aims to develop a sustainable European network of
organisations and institutions promoting "democracy learning" and civic education in different contexts. The partners
have composed a study group integrating learners from their local networks. This group reflects on European
democracy in transformation, compares the conditions of civic education on national levels, exchanges ideas, concepts
and methods in order to create an integral concept of "democracy learning" and develops and implements tools,
methods and projects.
The approach of the project with regard to "democracy learning" pays particular attention to interfaces of civic
education regarding formal and non-formal learning and participation of young adults and minorities in local contexts.
The participants work together in an intercultural and intergenerational learning process. Reflection groups are formed
in order to work on particular aspects and contexts of democracy learning. An internet platform assures a continous
collaboration of the partners.
The results of the learning partnership are published online continously and are also multiplied by means of publications
and/or an international conference.
