The European Commission has launched an Open Call for Good Practices on School/Culture Collaborations for Citizenship Education. The European Commission is inviting you to share your good practice example of how schools can work with artists and cultural organisations to enhance pupils’ civic engagement, democratic attitudes and their readiness to engage in civic and democratic life through the power of participatory artistic and cultural experiences within and around schools.
The Commission is looking for inspirational examples of such work that was/is implemented:
- within and around primary schools (upper years, age of pupils >10) and (especially) in secondary schools (ISCED 1-3), general or vocational.
- within and around formal, non-formal and/or informal education environments.
Share your good practice example through this form by 31 October 2025. Find out more about the Open Call for Good Practices here.
You can write in any of the EU-27 official languages. Please select your language under “Languages” section of the menu on the right-hand side of the screen.
Your contribution could make a difference! Good examples will inform and inspire policy and practice in the EU and world-wide. A selection of good practice examples will feature in the Compendium of Best Practices that the European Commission will publish and disseminate widely.
This call for proposals is implemented in the context of the project titled “Culture and Democracy Study and Peer Learning – School/Culture Collaborations for Civic Engagement and Critical Citizenship Education”, an initiative of the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture, implemented by its contractor Visionary Analytics in cooperation with KEA European Affairs following an open Call for Tenders. The project will generate knowledge and concrete guidance for policy and practice on this topic.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to the project’s team at citizeneduc@visionary.lt.
