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

This Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum Working Group 4 policy paper highlights the role of non-formal/informal education and empowerment of marginalised 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. It also proposes to establish new ways of communicating between the European Union and Eastern Partnership to enhance regional cooperation and ensure the participation of civil society in decision-making and in countering anti-democratic and autocratic tendencies.  

We invite you to read and download the policy paper below. You can also register for the policy paper launch event on Tuesday 13th May 2025.
