CO-CREATING INCLUSIVE INTERSECTIONAL DEMOCRATIC SPACES ACROSS EUROPE

该项目的目标是重新建立对民主的信任，并重新活跃与欧洲民主机构和价值观的接触。我们计划通过共同制定解决民主危机的办法、设计和执行对抗反对平等和民主的战略以及支持公民和在这一领域工作的积极分子来实现这一目标。CCINDLE直接与女权主义草根活动家和机构行为者、女权主义者和亲民主媒体、欧洲青年、慈善组织智囊团和性别专业人员合作。我们共同创造了关于以下方面的知识：i)反性别运动及其如何挑战民主，特别是通过政治暴力和替代知识的产生；ii)女权主义理论所设想的社会的未来及其与欧洲跨部门正义、包容和参与方面的民主的关系；iii)女权主义运动和机构对反性别和其他反民主力量的反应。我们关注七个不同社会和政治背景的欧洲国家，以及欧盟层面。这些知识使我们能够更好地理解民主的日常实践，以及当前的反弹如何与西方民主模式的更广泛的排外倾向和根本问题产生共鸣。我们认为，问题不仅仅是反性别运动本身，还有它们根源于当代欧洲民主国家的排他性特征，即它们的规范设计和运作方式。CCINDLE提供了具体的方法和工具，以更有效地打击反性别和其他反民主势力，支持民主的质量，并使整个欧洲的民主更具弹性和包容性。我们通过共同创建的行动将这些方法和工具付诸实践，这些行动包括学生陪审团、整个欧洲跨部门的女权主义媒体网络、性别咖啡馆的S、博客和其他网络/传播活动。

The objective of this project is to re-kindle trust in democracy and to re-invigorate engagement with democratic institutions and values in Europe. We plan to achieve this by co-creating solutions to the crisis of democracy, by designing and implementing strategies, which counter opposition to equality and democracy and by supporting citizens and activists working in this field. CCINDLE works directly with feminist grassroots activists and institutional actors, feminist and pro-democratic media, young Europeans, philanthropic organizations thinktanks, and gender professionals. We co-create knowledge on i) anti-gender campaigns and how they challenge democracy, particularly through political violence and alternative knowledge production; ii) futures of society envisioned in feminist theories and how they relate to democracy in Europe with respect to intersectional justice, inclusion, and participation; iii) feminist movement and institutional responses to anti-gender and other anti-democratic forces. We focus on seven European countries with different social and political backgrounds, and the EU level. This knowledge allows us to better understand everyday practices of democracy and how the current backlash resonates with broader exclusionary tendencies and fundamental problems of the Western democracy model. We assume that the problem is not anti-gender movements alone but also the roots they have in the exclusionary features of contemporary European democracies, the way in which they are normatively designed and function. CCINDLE provides for concrete approaches and tools to more effectively fight anti-gender and other anti-democratic forces, support the quality of democracy, and make democracy across Europe more resilient and inclusive. We put these approaches and tools into practice through co-creating actions including student juries, a network of intersectional feminist media across Europe, gender café’s, blogs, and other networking/ dissemination activities.
