Paris declaration on citizenship education (march 2015)

On 17 March 2015, education ministers from across the European Union met in Paris. Under discussion was how education and training can best meet the challenges of social inclusion, radicalisation and citizenship so brutally manifested in recent terrorist attacks. The result of this discussion was a common declaration on how Education should foster the development of European Citizenship as response to radicalisation of youth. This document has a strong influence on the Erasmus+ programme since it has been issued.
