Q&A for the panel “Keep Going: lessons from civil society on both sides of the Atlantic”

In countries like Poland, Serbia, and the US, far-right governments are strategically dismantling democratic institutions. This has devastating consequences for local civil society. But civil society initiatives are not abandoning democratic values and civil engagement. Even under increasingly difficult conditions, democratic engagement remains possible. We provide a platform for international civil society initiatives. From them, we can learn what authoritarian attacks look like, how to prepare for growing authoritarian tendencies, and how civil society resists through creativity, strong alliances, and perseverance.

At the Campact booth, Marina Pavlic (Kreni-Promeni), Daniel Altschuler (Freedom Together Foundation) and Ella Müller (Campact e.V.) will gather again following the panel “Keep Going: lessons from civil society on both sides of the Atlantic” and take time to answer your questions.
