Democracy & Diversity

Projects  Democracy & diversity

Democracy and diversity are core values for an open, just and peaceful society. They are closely interlinked - and mutually reinforcing. Sustainable development cannot be achieved without democratic values and tolerance towards others.  

With its projects, ECOMOVE tries to strengthen the democratic basic order and respect for other cultures and ways of life.
