NECE Focus Groups


4th floor, Statenzaal

Focus Group 1: Hard-to-reach learners and youth

This focus group strives to bring practitioners and academic experts together in order to find out about possible common approaches about HTR learners in European countries. We will present results of a first workshop in October 2013 and discuss a working programme for 2014 and beyond.

Moderation:


Benjamin Wunsch-Grafton, Trainer (Austria)

4th floor, Trêveszaal

Focus Group 2: CLEAR: Concept Learning for Empowerment through Analysis and Reflection

The project includes the following dimensions: the development of methods for concept learning, the cooperative development of conceptual knowledge and understanding as well as to initiate a field of research. At the workshop, the conference participants will have the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the participatory and reflective methodology developed in the project, the online learning platform and ongoing learning activities organized by partner institutions in six different countries.

Moderation:

Claudia Lenz, The European Wergeland Center (Norway)

4th floor, Europa

Focus Group 3: Exchange between Europe and North Africa

This time the focus group will firstly open a specific discussion on two questions "How can dialogues and cooperation with the neighbours in the Mediterranean region, in particular North Africa´s transformation states, be organised" and "What role can the EU play in a world that will be mainly defined by non-European states and societies". Afterwards all participants will discuss key issues for the focus group meeting on 11 December within the framework of the Civic Education Conference Egypt (CECE).

Focus Group 4: Vote Match Europe (non-public)

Vote Match is an educational tool. It has the potential to promote European citizenship, to better inform citizens about elections for the European Parliament, teach voters about the programmatic differences between the contesting parties and to increase voter turnout. By realizing Vote Match in all EU-member states, the Vote Match network will create a platform through which all users can get acquainted with the different opinions on all important European issues in the participating countries.

Open Forums


3rd floor, Parlement

Open Forum 1: Citizenship (education) in young European democracies: Have the dreams come true and what are the outlooks?

Based on good practices the workshop looks back at the developments of almost ten years since the ten, and later two more Central and Eastern European countries joined the EU. Within this timeframe we take a look at the developments in the field of active citizenship, citizen participation and citizenship education - formal and non-formal trends related to the political developments, as well as changing attitudes towards the EU membership. Based on the biggest challenges of today, the workshop strives to outline possible solutions for the future of citizenship education and the democratic deficit within these countries.

3rd floor, Paleis

Open Forum 2: How transnational media discourses on the euro crisis affect the thinking of European citizens


Economic crisis, austerity programs, and social tensions have triggered an anti-European atmosphere and put to test solidarity in many countries in Europe. Numerous citizens feel ignored and left out of the decision-making process. How do the European media perceive absent solidarity, unemployment, recession as well as the spread of right-wing populist and anti-European parties? Have the media contributed to indifference towards the European project? Or has the enormous reporting on the euro crisis even led to an enhanced European public sphere? Andreas Bock will try to answer these questions by presenting Externer Link: eurotopics.net – a press review that comprises newspapers and blogs of 30 European countries and cites the most influential and interesting voices.

Moderation:


Andreas Bock, euro I topics (Germany)

3rd floor, De Haagse Redactie

Open Forum 3: Citizen-driven European convention – mapping campaigns and developing synergies

Once again the future political architecture of the European Union is at a crossroad – either more power to bureaucrats and experts or to citizens and parliaments. European political elites are waiting in the wings to call out a new convention to amend current treaties and to integrate the intergovernmental financial policies of the last five years into the EU's legal framework. Citizens and civil society have to stand up against the idea of a hasty, elitist, non-participatory and non-transparent convention and claim their rights to set agenda, the pace and collectively decide among alternative proposals.

Moderation:

Martin Wilhelm, Citizens for Europe (Germany) &
Carsten Berg, The ECI Campaign (Germany)

4th floor, Rechtszaal

Open Forum 4: Evening with the Ombudsman

The main goal of the project is to empower rural communities in the EU through knowledge on their rights stated in the Charter of Fundamental Rights. Participants will take part in "Evenings with Ombudsman" - local meetings with theatre forum workshops and open discussions with Ombudsman representatives. The project is performed by five partner organisations - three of them take part in the NECE Initiative: Civic Education Centre at the Masaryk University (Czech Republic), Centre for Citizenship Education (Poland) and University of Ljubljana (Slovenia). You can find more information about the project you can find at Externer Link: www.evening-ombudsman.eu/

Moderation:
