Les Valeurs Européennes – un projet éducatif pour les jeunes |
|
... est le titre du manuel pour multiplicateurs de la formation politique qui vient de paraître aux éditions du Wochenschauverlag.
Ce projet franco-allemand vise à transmettre aux jeunes des connaissances sur l'origine et la signification des valeurs européennes, les invite à y réfléchir et les familiarise avec l'idée européenne : quel rôle jouent les valeurs européennes pour chacun d'entre nous ? Que signifie vraiment le concept d'identité européenne ?
Cinq modules thématiques approfondissent les valeurs inscrites dans la
Charte des droits fondamentaux de l'Union européenne comme socle commun
aux Européens : l'égalité, la démocratie, la liberté, les droits de
l'homme et l'Etat de droit.
Un sixième module présente les liens
d'interdépendance entre ces valeurs : en quoi la valeur traitée
peut-elle avoir une dimension européenne ? Dans quelle mesure cette
valeur précise joue-t-elle un rôle déterminant dans la construction
d'une identité européenne?

Debate Europe - giving citizens a voice |
|
The European
Commission wants to increase citizens' involvement in the EU decision-making
process. In a Communication
entitled 'Debate Europe - building on the experience of Plan D for Democracy,
Dialogue and Debate', it puts forward a set of future actions to foster a general and permanent
debate on the future of the European Union among people from all walks of life,
at both national and EU level.
Margot Wallström, Vice-President,
Institutional Relations and Communication Strategy said: "The policies of the EU affect everyone's
lives, whether through its Regulations on subjects such as mobile phone roaming
charges or through the free movement of people or goods or any other of the
EU's many achievements. EU policies therefore need to be fully
anchored in the political parties, in the national democratic traditions, and
in the daily political dialogue. They need to be discussed and debated,
whether in the town hall, in regional assemblies, national parliaments, on
television shows or on the internet".
The European
Commission will co-fund a number of civil society projects in 2008 and 2009
under Debate Europe - both at EU and national level. Besides further developing
the most successful initiatives undertaken under Plan D since 2005, the
Commission will shortly publish a call for proposals for new projects.
Debate Europe will:
- co-fund
pan-European citizens' consultation
projects managed by civil society organisations;
- promote
actions at country level to enable
citizens to debate their views and discuss them with local policy makers;
complementing other European Commission programmes and events which promote
active involvement of citizens in the legislative and decision-making process
at EU level;
- offer
a framework of cooperation between
the European Commission and other EU institutions in reaching out to the
citizens at large and breaking the divide between European and national
politics;
- launch
on-line networks which will bring
together European, national and regional parliamentarians, journalists and
other European opinion-makers to share information, knowledge and ideas on the
EU;
- develop
European Public Spaces in the
capital cities of the Member States, where the
Commission and the European Parliament together will accommodate exhibitions,
debates, seminars and training sessions on EU matters
- go "even more local" by involving EU officials in
activities at regional and local level; and
-
increase the potential of the "Debate Europe" online discussion
forum amongst Internet users.
