Our project "School of Democracy" was created as a result of activities carried out by our Foundation and the needs of young people identified during these activities. Consultations with young people, conversations, and survey research confirmed their willingness to engage in civic life. At the same time, they revealed barriers rooted in young people’s awareness that make this process more difficult. Our goal is to raise the level of knowledge in the field of civic education, to better understand the mechanisms of democracy and active participation, and, as a result, to increase young people’s involvement in civic life. We want to show that it is worthwhile to take part in civic life, to pursue one’s plans, and to be an active member of the local community. The skills, knowledge, and experiences gained within the project are intended to effectively support this process.
