Or. en
Justification
Since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, European democracy has faced unprecedented challenges, especially in countries forming the EU’s eastern border. As outlined in the European Democracy Shield, EU candidate countries and specific Member States are particularly exposed to FIMI and disinformation due to their proximity with Russia and Belarus or are targets of intense destabilisation and interference attempts. Targeted support is needed to ensure democratic resilience of the Union.

| (fa) fostering European remembrance as a component of civic awareness and democratic resilience, including by supporting activities and initiatives relating to Europe’s history, in particular the twentieth century, and to the causes and consequences of authoritarian and totalitarian regimes in modern European history, including Nazism, which led to the Holocaust, fascism, Stalinism and totalitarian communist regimes; and by promoting reflection on the plurality of individual, local and transnational historical experiences that form part of Europe’s shared historical heritage, thereby contributing to a better understanding of the Union, its origins, purpose and values. |
Or. en
Justification
Adapted from CERV: "Remembrance activities and critical reflection on Europe’s historical memory are necessary to make citizens, in particular young persons, aware of their common history and values as the foundation for a common future. Remembrance activities should reflect on the causes of totalitarian regimes in Europe’s modern history, in particular Nazism, which led to the Holocaust; fascism; Stalinism and totalitarian communist regimes, and should commemorate the victims of their crimes. They should also encompass activities concerning other defining moments and reference points in recent European history. The relevance of historical, social, cultural and intercultural factors should also be taken into account in order to create a European identity based on common values and a sense of common belonging."
