To raise awareness of the importance of an active citizenship. To know how demicracy is structured, at a local, regional, national, and European level. To develop some competences mentioned in the Model of Competences for a Democratic Culture. To train teachers in different aspects related to active citizenship.
This project focuses on the improvement of Competence for Citizenship. It is necessary to increase this competence because we can see little interest, mainly among the young population, in basic aspects such as the recent history of our country, the appreciation of the changes in society, and in the valuation of wellbeing state and democracy in which we live. Because of that, we try to develop an interest in understanding that every citizen´s actions determine what happens in the world. On the other hand, we foster attitudes like doing a regular follow-up of political and social news, getting accurate information and analysing it with a critical thinking, not making decisions based on emotions, and being able to express opinions and disagreements with assertiveness and without aggressiveness.
