Note on language: Working language is English, supported by German-Polish interpreters; public events are interpreted in German and Polish.

The programme of DOING DEMOCRACY offers two half-days full of impulses, dialogue, and networking across the German-Polish border. At the centre are encounters between civil society practice, academia, and students: who is working on what, which questions are particularly pressing, and where can cooperations emerge?

Contributions and conversations are guided by the topics and concerns of the participants. Posters, exchange formats and thematic conversation spaces create a framework in which experiences can be shared, needs made visible and new collaboration initiated. The programme is complemented by public formats addressing central questions of democratic resilience and the challenges of disinformation.
