Enrolment open for ECI: From A to Z course
The ECI Project: from A to Z - European Citizens' Initiative: A Tool for Engagement and Active Citizenship is promoting an online course on European Citizenship. It will run from 15 December 2023 to 15 March 2024, for a total of 54 hours.
The project ECI online course is an output of a broader project: the European Citizens' Initiative: A Tool for Engagement and Active Citizenship (ECI: From A to Z) financed by the European Commission under the Erasmus + program (project 2020-1-PT01-KA203-078546), and completed in 2023. Going onto its third edition, this course is now open to the general public, aiming to promote the impact of the ECI: From A to Z project.
The instrument of the European Citizens' initiative, established by the Treaty of Lisbon, is a field of excellence for civic engagement and participation within European Union public life. It deserves, therefore, to be better understood and applied in all a whole. The ECI online course – the first of its kind on this topic – will help participants to become familiar with the functioning of the European Citizens' initiative from all angles: historical, legal, political, administrative, technical, etc.
To register for the ECI online course, please send an email to eci-az@uc.pt with your name, affiliation and contacts until 11 December 2023.
