Report on Citizenship Education in the EU

On the 27th of last month a report was presented at the European Parliament on the implementation of Citizenship Education in the European Union.

María Rosa Buxarrais and Enric Ortega are the authors of the pages where the information on Spain is presented.

Abstract

In December 2020, the European Parliament’s Committee on Culture and Education (CULT) requested the drawing up of an own-initiative report on the implementation of the citizenship education actions (2021/2008(INI)). Domènec Ruiz Devesa (S&D, Spain) was appointed rapporteur.

This European implementation assessment (EIA) has been prepared to accompany the CULT committee in its scrutiny work on implementation of citizenship education measures in the European Union (EU).

Beginning with an overview of the EU policy framework for citizenship education, the EIA goes on in its second part to outline action in the field of citizenship education supported by EU funding programmes, in particular the Erasmus+ and Horizon 2020 programmes. It also presents citizenship education policies and practices in 10 EU Member States.
