A Guidance to eCitizenship
Duration
March 2013 - May 2014
The main goal of the project was to increase the awareness and motivation and develop skills of young people for civic e-activeness. The main target group were students, but to reach the target group and project’s goals, the project also focuses on teachers of civic education.
In cooperation with Narva Colledge of the University of Tartu the teachers were trained and equipped with updated, interactive teaching materials (containing videos, case-studies etc).
One of the target groups of the project was also Estonian municipalities. Their e-engagement practices were tested by young people and the case-studies, new ideas and technical solutions were generated on this basis in the last stage of the project.
By the end of the project, besides the new interactive study material, students obtained real e-participation experiences testing new e-participation solutions.
