Selected Projects in Citizenship Education

The bpb believes that citizenship education provides a foundation for fostering participation in society or in politics and for creating a common European consciousness. Citizenship education facilitates public dialogue and equips people with the knowledge they need to actively take part in the democratic process. The bpb is therefore involved in a variety of projects to provide information on European issues, to encourage dialogue on different citizenship education issues, and to foster mutual understanding on an international level.
