How do we PARTICIPATE in politics? | TEPSA Animated Explainer

Voting, participating in political parties or demonstrations, signing petitions. These are just a few examples of the different ways in which we, citizens, can participate in politics. But how do we decide which types of participation to engage in?

This TEPSA Animated Explainer, created in collaboration with the ActEU project, explores the triggers, motivations and emotions influencing citizens’ political participation.

The video is based on the findings of the ActEU “Report (including policy recommendations) explaining for which groups in society, decreasing trust acts as a critical mediator for the changing pattern of citizens’ political participation in Europe”, written by Felix-Christopher von Nostitz, Max Valentin Robert, Zoe Lefkofridi, Matilde Ceron, Kristina Weissenbach, Ruth Berkowitz, and Louisa Parks.
