Our Project Idea

Project CouReg targets young people in the Saxon and Bohemian borderlands. Our goal is to strengthen and develop democratic potential. Specifically, educational modules with teaching materials 1) for pupils and 2) for students on the topic of civil courage and civic engagement are being developed. Our project aims to train these skills and thus develop intercultural and democratic competences among the young generation between 14 and 25 years of age.
