The CommEUnication project has ended with a final conference at the European Parliament in Brussels on 6 September 2022. During the event, the consortium and participants discussed the results and shared their experiences, best practices and policy proposals to empower civic engagement and the European fight against disinformation.
The project was funded by the Europe for Citizens Programme of the European Union and brought together CSOs from Italy, Belgium, Bulgaria, Greece, Portugal, Ireland and France. They worked to tackle Euroscepticism and promote a broader understanding of the EU and its values.
In this context, the CommEUnication project conducted an online survey to find out how much young people know about the EU and to get a better and broader understanding of the disinformation phenomenon in the EU. The survey helped the partners better prepare local training sessions and the educational materials developed during the Creative Labs in Rome and Porto that addressed students and young professionals.
During the Creative Labs, the young participants from partner countries constructed a new strategy for communication that aims to promote a correct understanding of the EU, its values and benefits and to empower citizens to widen their civic participation and tackle the spread of disinformation.
