  • Zukunft D – civil society organisations strenghten democracy with digital means

    As part of the third funding period of the German Federal Ministry for Family Affairs' “Demokratie leben!” programme, we have started to cooperate with three other civil society organisations to set up an association to strengthen digital democracy. Zukunft D will promote the development of expertise, knowledge sharing and nationwide networking in this area: for more participation, a new information culture, easy access, secure data and infrastructure and the involvement of citizens in decision-making processes that directly affect them. The association is to be established by the end of 2028. Find out more in our latest press release (in German).

  • Young European Security Conference 2025

    On February 27 and 28, 200 young people from across Europe will meet in Berlin to attend a programme focusing on a wide range of topics connected to security policy – such as technology, environment, transatlantic relations, democracy and resilience. At a time when international conflicts and security policy issues are becoming increasingly relevant, we want to give young people the opportunity to engage intensively with these issues, strengthen their skills and make their perspectives heard. You can apply until the end of January.
