“Democracy Needs All of Us” – Report on the 10th Danube Networkers Meeting, Ulm 2026

Posted on by otilia

It was an exciting meeting with 150 participants from 12 countries of the Danube Region, the youngest 15 and the oldest 85 years old. The in-person meetings of partners from different projects, along with the study visits on Wednesday, 8 July, and Thursday, 9 July, gave our guests valuable insights into social, educational, and cultural institutions shaped by democratic awareness and solidarity, including through the involvement of many volunteers. The conference at the Edwin-Scharff-Haus on the topic “Democracy Needs All of Us” on 10 July was a great success, again bringing together around 150 participants from 12 different countries of the Danube Region in a diverse mix of representatives from NGOs across a wide range of fields, as well as universities and schools. Intensive discussions took place at 19 roundtables, each addressing different current issues relating to democracy, social participation, and European cooperation. The multilingual AI-supported translation using Wordly on Friday morning – in German, English, and Romanian – was received particularly positively.
