Citizenship is the core value that gives people the knowledge and skills to understand, challenge and engage with the society. Democracies need active, informed, and responsible citizens who are willing and able to take responsibility for themselves and their communities and contribute to the political process.
The START POINT project aims to share common values, civic engagement, and participation, through digital citizenship education and community engagement. promoting new adult education opportunities, particularly for adults with a low level of skills, knowledge and competences in the field of citizenship learning, democratic participation and civic engagement.
Start Point is an Erasmus+ project implemented by 6 organisations from Germany, Portugal, Austria, Finland, Slovenia, and Cyprus. From November 2021 to November 2023, this consortium will work closely together in order to promote active citizenship and democratic participation and to develop open-source learning materials that will be freely available way after the 2 year implementation period.
