Description
At CRDC, we believe that accurate and accessible information is essential for a democratic society. Through the EU-IMPACT project, we aim to bring Europe closer to people — not through political speeches, but through simple explanations, interactive activities, and direct dialogue with citizens.
EU-IMPACT is more than just a communication campaign: it is an invitation to learn, a bridge between local communities and European values. At a time when disinformation is taking root, this project offers clear, relevant, and easy-to-understand content about sectoral reforms and the benefits of the Republic of Moldova's accession to the European Union.
Objectives
Increasing awareness of European reforms and the benefits of integration among citizens of the Southern Development Region of the country.
Combating myths and disinformation about the EU through verified materials and interactive sessions.
Promoting European values – human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law, and respect for human rights – among youth and adults.
Facilitating dialogue between communities, experts, and local leaders on topics related to European integration.
Methodology
The project is implemented through clear and interconnected stages that combine digital media, field activities, and civic education:
