Potential and challenges of e participation in the European Union
This study was commissioned and supervised by the European Parliament's Policy Department for Citizens' Rights and Constitutional Affairs at the request of the AFCO Committee.

The main objectives of the study are to identify best practices in EU Member States, describe e-participation tools and initiatives at the EU level, and explain the benefits and challenges of e-participation. © European Union, 2016 - Elisa LIRONI, European Citizen Action Service (ECAS) Read More -
Supporting Quality Journalism through Media and Information Literacy
MIL - Media and Information Literacy used to be seen as the responsibility of the educational sector mostly targeting younger people in full-time education. This responsibility has to be extended to all stakeholders who are in a position to reach citizens of all age groups where they currently are and create new dissemination networks for MIL knowledge and skills. © Council of Europe, January 2020 - Martina Chapman and Markus Oermann Read More -
coLAB Toolkit: Inclusive practices towards refugees in higher education (2020)
CoLAB, a collaboration between five higher education institutions in Europe, is born from the observation that many refugees bring with them substantial professional experience and qualifications. Unfortunately, their prior achievements may not be recognized by their new host communities, and it is common for refugees to experience higher than average levels of unemployment, or to be employed below their level of skill. © Council of Europe, November 2019, English publication Read More -
Media freedom regulation and trust
Our states are undergoing unprecedented levels of media change, with a shift of media consumption from traditional to digital channels and especially onto online platforms. This has had major implications for the complex system of media funding, ethics and regulation. The media sector is faced with major financial difficulties and decline of trust. Not surprising, as consuming news and information on social media involves challenges ranging from a lack of fact checking, confusion about news sources to online disinformation, hateful rhetoric and electoral manipulation. © Council of Europe, February 2020 - Damian Tambini Read More -
Media Literacy for all
Being media literate means being able to critically understand and evaluate media content and to responsibly and safely use digital media services. Media literacy helps us engage with others in the public sphere, using the creative and participatory potential that new technologies and services can offer. Nowadays, it also includes understanding how data is used and how algorithms and all can influence media production and choices. The importance of community media in supporting the formation of an ‘informed citizenry’ is well recognized by the Council of Europe. © Council of Europe, February 2020 - Martina Chapman, Nadia Bellardi, Helmut Peissl Read More -

End of life situations
This brochure brings together key Council of Europe guidelines on one of the most important subjects faced by human beings – that is to say, coping with the issue of passing away.

Digital technologies in elections
Digital solutions are increasingly used in elections. Their security has attracted much attention in the recent years as it impacts the integrity of elections. The legislator has the important burden to introduce regulations ensuring that only digital solutions which comply with constitutional principles can be used in elections. This is not an easy task as the field is still experimental. The two studies presented here raise legal questions, draw upon past experiences in several countries and suggest possible approaches. This publication will be of interest to legislators and executive authorities, namely Election Management Bodies, that are invited to decide on the use of digital solutions in elections. © Council of Europe, March 2020 - Ardita Driza Maurer Read More -

Parenting in digital age
“Digital parents” need to be responsible role models, and to establish communication and trust so that children will discuss their autonomous online activities openly. Digital parents should also understand what style of parenting works best for their families so that their children not only participate in the digital age, but actually thrive, while being protected from any risks posed by this new environment. Finally, parents and caregivers are called upon to closely watch their own behaviors, for example as they share online content, as they use digital technologies throughout the day, or as they allow their children to access these technologies. © Council of Europe, August 2020 - Dr Elizabeth Milovidov Read More -

Protecting Migrants under the European Convention on human rights and the European Social Charter
Migration to Europe is an ancient and wide phenomenon which has accelerated in speed and scale in recent times. Although migrants are not expressly mentioned in the European Convention on Human Rights, they, as every human being, are entitled to human rights protection. Migrants are people who move from their country of usual residence or nationality to another country. A migrant may move for economic or educational reasons, to flee from natural disasters caused by climate change or to escape persecution, human rights abuses, threats to life or physical integrity, war and civil unrest. This handbook is intended as a tool for legal practitioners (lawyers, judges, public officials, human rights defenders) to better understand the European human rights of migrants and the means to claim their respect or implementation at the national and international levels. © Council of Europe, February 2013 - Yannis Ktistakis Read More
