Lecture Series: Democracy & Citizenship

In 2018, together with ProDemos, we hosted a lecture series on democracy and citizenship. In this highly successful lecture series, professors, policymakers, organisations, and teachers discussed the state of affairs in the Netherlands regarding support for democratic values and citizenship. Understanding that some might not be able to travel to The Hague on a Monday evening, we are making the reports and podcasts available to everyone.

Below you can find the summaries, as well as the podcasts of the lecture series:

  1. Prof. Dr. Tom van der Meer: Democratic values under pressure?
  2. Prof. Dr. Herman van de Werfhorst: The role of the Dutch educational system
  3. Prof. Dr. Ellen Claes, Diversion, & Dr. Hessel Nieuwelink: Controversial topics in the classroom
  4. Prof. Dr. Geert ten Dam, Christianne Mattijssen, & Dr. Bram Eidhof: The state of citizenship education in the Netherlands

We will keep you informed about any potential follow-ups.
