The role of civic and citizenship education for strengthening civic and democratic participation and support for common European values

Objectives: The Horizon Europe grant call aims to enhance the role of civic and citizenship education in bolstering civic and democratic participation and upholding shared European values. It seeks to equip young individuals with the competencies necessary for active and engaged democratic participation through both formal and non-formal education pathways. Key objectives include assessing impactful teaching and assessment methodologies in citizenship education, understanding the effects of citizenship education on youth engagement, and developing collaborative educational approaches. Successful projects should foster involvement across diverse socio-demographic backgrounds, including disadvantaged youth.
