Dear colleagues and friends from Europe and other areas,
we cordially invite you to join the 90th Come Together Session of the Danube-Networkers devoted to the topic: “Fostering Citizen Participation & Democracy by digital and analogue tools”
Date: October 22, 2024 (Tuesday) Time: 18:30 (6:30 P.M., CET)
Developments in many countries raise the question of why people do not seem to be aware of the importance of citizen participation. In particular, however, it seems that the opportunities to get involved are often not even known. During this special Come Together Session, we wish to explore these opportunities across our countries with you. We will collect information on analog and digital political participation opportunities and invite you to share your experiences with us: How have you been involved? Or why haven’t you used the existing possibilities so far? What offers should be made to get more people involved?
Let’s discuss together about this important topic and use this great chance to exchange examples from our own experiences and to brainstorm new ideas together!
Preparation: We encourage you to think about and gather examples from your country / your city beforehand. You can also send them to us in advance to info@ileu.net.
Languages: The session will be held in English and translated into German, Romanian, Bulgarian, Ukrainian, and Serbian.
Moderated by: Carmen Stadelhofer (ILEU e.V.) & Marina Kuch (ILEU e.V.)
Access to the session:
Danube Networkers invite: Come Together – Connecting people by culture!
What do you think of when you think of traveling? Getting to know new people and cultures, getting away from everyday life, taking a deep breath…!? Together we would like to explore the topic of traveling: how do you plan a trip, why do you travel at all – but we would also like to talk about what we should pay attention to when we travel, e.g. sustainability. We look forward to your stories, thoughts and tips. We will also hear great travel stories with beautiful pictures and be treated to poems and songs.
We invite you to join our session on the interesting topic of “Serbia on focus – people, tradition & legacy” where you will learn more about Serbia – a country in the center of Danube basin, but still not well known, and a hidden pearl of Balkan and Europe. You will discover life of first Serbian woman painter and poetess Wilhelmina Mina Karadzic from early 18. Century, hear about young talents that unite Europe, and listen to the song and performance of a talented Serbian musician.
We will also have an interesting discussion about our personal experience from this country: Have you visited Serbia? Do you know some famous persons from or Serbian by origin? Do you know something about Serbian gastronomy, mentality and folklore? Let’s exchange and get to know together Serbia!
