It seeks to:

  • Provide knowledge about civil society, citizenship and social protection
  • Nourish a public debate on governance
  • Strengthen intellectual co-operation

Through research and learning and dialogue, focus is placed on:

  • Active citizenship: to promote citizens' involvement and social participation in policy-making.
  • Organised civil society: to understand the impact of different forms of citizenship and civic participation.
  • Multiple identities: to identify factors that help co-existence among (dwellers of) multiple identities in Europe.

The CINEFOGO Network of Excellence is supported by the Sixth Framework Programme, Priority 7: New Forms of Citizenship and Cultural Identities of the European Union.

The Network

41 institutions involving more than 180 researchers and PhD students in Europe are part of the Network that is co-ordinated by the University of Roskilde, Department of Society and Globalisation (Denmark). The work is distributed among 52 Work Packages (WPs). The organisational structure of the Network was set up to meet the Network's Aims and Scope.
