DEMOCRACY PROJECTS
See what is already done and find inspiration for your next project.
Euromancer Comic Strip
It is a Peanuts-type comic strip, created by Izar Lunaček, that philosophizes and romanticizes about the future of the European Union. It will be a monthly strip - the equivalent of what you could find in newspapers in the past. The goal is to provide a funny, smart and accessible format to build consciousness about the European Union and how it needs to improve.
Volt There financed this Comic Strip.
Danish Democracy Festival Folkemødet
Citizens and decision-makers meet up at Folkemødet in beautiful surroundings and engage in dialogue. Folkemødet are created in co-operation with political parties, grassroots and different associations and companies. Everyone contribute with interesting debates, presentations, cultural events, speeches, workshops and much more.
Volt There supported a political team to be part of this festival.
European Party Funding Observatory
Political parties are cornerstones of modern representative democracies, and transparency on their funding is essential. At the European level, this transparency is not provided. The European Party Funding Observatory provides clear visualisations of European parties' public and private funding, as well as spending, to inform citizens about their parties. It ensures that public data is not merely published, but actually visible and understandable by citizens.
Volt There supports this initiative so it continues to grow.
States General of Italian Political Financing
Create a manifesto on the democratic, transparent and fair financing of Italian politics, in collaboration with other political forces, associations specialised in the subject and the academy. Make this manifesto operational through the involvement of members of the Italian parliament and the subsequent writing of a bill together with them. The goal of this manifesto is to promote good practices in the inclusion of code of ethics, transparency norms, control procedures for avoiding conflicts of interest, and much more.
Volt There helped finance part of this Manifesto initiative.
