Demographics of democracy

Feeling “left behind”? Demography and democracy at the local level

We invite you to join prominent experts from science, policy and civil society to discuss the relationship between demographic changes, territorial inequalities and the rise of anti-democratic attitudes, especially in supposedly “left-behind” regions. Should we understand the support for anti-EU and anti-migration parties in various regions as a form of “protest” against current living conditions? Could the social and political exclusion or emotions like loneliness, fear, deprivation foster long-term anti-democratic attitudes?

Eminent experts will present key issues and examples from different European regions via short contributions (5-7 min). Following the presentations, the workshop participants will have the chance to exchange knowledge and experience from their professional areas and regions.
