The Institute of Research & Training on European Affairs – I.R.T.E.A. is implementing the project “Digital Civic Participation v2.0 (DCP v2.0),” funded by the Citizens, Equality, Rights and Values program of the European Union (CERV-2021-CITIZENS-TOWN).
DCP v2.0 aims to document and analyze digital tools for participatory democracy and engagement used in EU countries, and create a user-friendly manual on how and in what circumstances they can be utilized. The purpose of the manual is to be easily accessible to everyone, thus expanding the use of digital tools in decision-making processes at the local level and beyond.
The project is carried out in collaboration with the following partners:
• Municipality of Cinisello Balsamo – Italy
• PONT Group – Romania
• Municipality of Klaipeda – Lithuania
• Municipality of Starachowice – Poland
As part of this, the first national activity of the project will be held on October 7, 2022, in Athens. The event includes two two-hour workshops focusing on the documentation and analysis of existing digital tools for participation at both the local and national levels.
I.R.T.E.A. is seeking 30 young individuals interested in developing their communication skills, learning more about digital democracy and participatory tools, and advancing their knowledge and skills in this field to participate in this first project activity.
Do you want to learn more about democratic participation and digital transition, the various tools available worldwide, and practice your communication skills?
