We train democracy
Read about the 10 muscles of democracy
Democracy Fitness is a training concept that challenges the traditional perception of what democracy is. Democracy is something to be practiced – and it can be fun, challenging and meaningful in the process.
Are you concerned about our democracy? And do you think it’s important that more people participate in it?
In a democracy, we are the most important ingredient. Democracy is strengthened when we participate in it, care for each other and help develop our society. But democratic participation requires practice in active listening, using your voice, forming and developing opinions, exploring disagreement, mobilizing each other and finding good compromises in a fast-paced world.
Democracy Fitness focuses our attention on the skills and abilities that are important for our participation in democracy. Democracy Fitness gives us the opportunity to practice participating together.
