what we want to achieve

The campaign aims to strengthen diversity, freedom and community, to promote civic participation and to make democracy more resilient. It stands for a strong Europe and against forgetting, hatred, violence and racism.

Above all, young people and young adults should experience the values of an open society instead of being lectured about them. The campaign is non-partisan and opens up spaces for shared experiences.

The evenings usually include a conversation with the audience. There is also a separate forum for students.
