This workshop will be a two-part workshop/panel discussion about the EU institutions, local and youth participation and the European elections. The list of institutional solutions and actions will be integrated into the workshop report and used as input for the associations co-organising it.

This workshop during the Civil Society Week will focus on a CSO Toolkit, offering practical strategies to combat disinformation and foster coalition-building. ALDA and EEB will discuss citizenwashing, a form of disinformation, aiming to generate recommendations based on case studies to safeguard public participation and democracy.
