In this webinar, we delved into the strategies and tactics aimed at mobilising the unengaged and fostering active participation in European Citizens' Initiatives (ECIs).
Our experts explored the barriers hindering engagement, innovative approaches to outreach, and the pivotal role of digital tools and grassroots activism in driving ECI success. Drawing from real-world experiences, both from expert perspectives and ECI organisers, we dissected effective strategies, shared valuable insights, and discussed challenges faced in the pursuit of engagement.
