On February 10, 2026 a KOM and a launch conference was held in the city of Koper, Slovenia. The event is part of the DIGIVOTE: Digital Democracy: Trust, Transparency and Engagement in Voting Systems project, funded by the CERV programme of the European Commission and organized by the leading beneficiary EMUNI University.
During the KOM meeting, the project DIGIVOTE was presented and partners met. Two representatives from FECE attended the KOM meeting. The project consortium is formed of seven organisations from Slovenia, Bulgaria, Italy, Germany, Greece, Poland and Estonia. The main objective of the DIGIVOTE project is to empower citizens to actively shape the future of e- democracy in Europe and focuses on both e-voting (electronic machines at polling stations) and i-voting (remote online voting) to explore legal, ethical, and social implications of digital voting.
During the second half of the day, an official public conference was held, titled Voting reimagined – starting the digital conversation. The conference gathered academia and stakeholders in a structured debate focused on the basic principles reimagined through digital voting and technology and other challenges of digital voting. The event concluded with informal networking and a city tour around the city of Koper.
