Descripción del proyecto
Fortalecimiento de la democracia europea mediante el establecimiento de redes y la colaboración
En el siempre cambiante panorama de la democracia europea, la falta de colaboración efectiva y de establecimiento de redes entre las partes interesadas sigue siendo un obstáculo importante. La fragmentación de los conocimientos sobre innovación democrática y gobernanza agrava aún más el reto, lo que impide a los responsables políticos y a los profesionales abordar cuestiones sociales complejas. En este contexto, el equipo del proyecto Nets4Dem, financiado con fondos europeos, introduce un método pionero de red de redes, con el objetivo de establecer una comunidad europea conectada de profesionales e investigadores de la democracia. El objetivo de Nets4Dem es aprovechar los puntos fuertes de los agentes y redes existentes en el sector de la democracia entrelazándolos y reduciendo al mismo tiempo la duplicación. En general, el equipo del proyecto pretende superar los retos facilitando la colaboración, el intercambio de conocimientos y los avances en la formulación de políticas para construir sociedades inclusivas y democracias resilientes.
Objetivo
Nets4Dem puts forward a Network of Networks approach to establish and develop a European network of practitioners and researchers in the field of democracy, civic deliberation, participation and citizenship education.
The Consortium, brings together widely networked organisations with long-term expertise in democratic innovation across a broad range of areas (including digital democracy, rule of law, climate change, also through cultural and creative approach). It is composed of umbrella organisations, that will draw on their already existing networks to contribute to the call outcomes.
The unique approach that Nets4Dem puts forward is to ‘weave’ more and better connections between existing actors and networks already active in the wider democracy field, taking advantage of each other’s strengths and reducing duplication.
Nets4Dem will focus its efforts on four main objectives: (1) creating, fostering and sustaining stronger Network of policy makers, practitioners and researchers; (2) systematizing and connecting the fragmented knowledge on democratic innovation and governance research; (3) establishing a coordinated European approach to promote systematic accessibility of democratic innovation; (4) raising the ambition of policy making through policy recommendations to strengthen democracy at all levels of governance.
We will seek to address the challenges we’ve identified: the need for better collaboration and networking in the democratic field, the need to connect existing knowledge on democracy and governance and make it more accessible, so that policymakers and practitioners are better equipped to the address complex challenges they are facing for inclusive societies and more resilient democracy
To address these and potential new challenges, substantial efforts are required from researchers, practitioners, policy makers and citizens. One of the most impactful ways to support this work is by connecting the efforts of all those who are pursuing the same goal
