Importance of education about democracy is more than necessary nowadays. Increasing popularity of right-wing extremist and populist political parties in many European countries and growing xenophobia, racism and hate-speech needs to be addressed. Citizens seem to have forgotten about the past totalitarian and authoritarian regimes and young people who never experienced this era or transition to democracy are even more vulnerable to support those anti-democratic movements. There is a gap between the remembrance of the past, the present situation and how we shape our future.
Therefore several NGOs and schools decided to organize project “Building Democratic Europe Together”. We held various activities to address the situation mentioned above that will be described in this article. Teachers and youth workers can use the outcomes of the project during their lessons or get inspired by diverse activities and methods that we applied.
