Education is key

Whether it’s about the environment, democracy, health, security or digitalisation, we believe effective change comes through equal access to lifelong learning.

That’s why we are embarking on a journey that will lead to the launch in 2024 of an educational programme focussed on citizen capacity-building, democracy and active citizenship – stay tuned!

Our current workshops are an interactive way to engage with citizens and civil society organisations on pro-democracy issues, underpinning our commitment to promote a new kind of leadership and help regenerate democracy.

We very much welcome citizens and our community partners to contact us to propose workshop ideas and speakers.
