Lost in Transition?
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 5 ส.ค. 2021
This is the channel of the project "Lost in Transition?", established by Austausch e.V. in cooperation with our partners from Eastern European countries.
The transformation after 1989-91 was a traumatic phase for many countries, but also the starting point for a free civil society. To effectively counter contemporary threats to democracy posed by populism and de facto autocracy, it is essential to look at the past and at the European dimension of the post-89 transition.
Here we publish our digital formats with witnesses to make transformation processes perceptible and accessible to the public. Also you find the videos of our seminar series, that illustrated how to use the newly-created formats in school and non-formal civic education in creative ways.
