The organisers of the conference understand democratic education to mean, on the one hand, the right of children and young people to make their own choices regarding learning and all other areas of daily life; and, on the other hand, that children and young people have an equal share in decision-making about how their organisations – in particular their schools – are managed and what agreements are needed. The conference therefore welcomes not only adults (teachers, educators, researchers and change makers), but also children and youths.
Information on previous conferences can be found on the European Democratic Education Community (EUDEC) website under "EUDEC conferences" (mainly a list) and "past events" (further information). [Abstract: Site editors' information supplemented by editors of Education Worldwide]
