How can civil society be reinforced to help build resilient democracies in the Eastern Partnership?

How can civil societies’ capacities be strengthened to build resilient democracies in the Eastern Partnership and in the European Union?

In its latest policy paper the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum Working Group 4 highlights the role of non-formal/informal education and empowerment of marginalized groups and how media literacy can be leveraged to combat mis/disinformation. The paper insists on the role that lifelong learning can play in reaching sustainable development and digital transformation goals.

The paper also proposes to establish new ways of communicating between the EU and EaP to enhance regional cooperation and ensure the participation of civil society in decision-making and in countering anti-democratic and autocratic tendencies.

This event will take place on Tuesday 13 May, 10:00-12:00 CET at the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum, Avenue de Cortenbergh 120, 1000 Brussels.
