Nets4Dem
Uniting efforts makes our impact more powerful! EPD engages in networks of democracy expertise to reinforce and increase the overall impact of research, policy recommendations, capacity-building, civic deliberation, participation and citizenship education.
As part of Nets4Dem, we contribute to the establishment of a Network of Networks of practitioners and researchers throughout Europe.
How?
Focusing on strengthening networks
The European expertise in democracy needs better collaboration and networking. Nets4Dem works to create, foster and sustain a stronger network of practitioners and researchers.
Weaving connections
Nets4Dem connects already existing actors and networks active in the wider democracy field, taking advantage of each other’s strengths and reducing duplication.
Streamlining knowledge
Nets4Dem works to systematise and connect the fragmented knowledge on democratic innovation and governance research.
Improving access to democratic innovation
Nets4Dem works to establish a coordinated European approach to promote systematic accessibility of democratic innovation.
Contributing to policy making
Policymakers and practitioners need to be better equipped to the address complex challenges they are facing for more inclusive societies and more resilient democracy. Nets4Dem aims at raising the ambition of policy making through policy recommendations to strengthen democracy at all levels of governance.
