data and its potential to support a new push for European democracy,
[https://commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy/priorities-2019-2024/new-push-european-democracy_en]
by presenting initiatives that use open data to protect and strengthen
European democracy. It is following the previous webinar in the series
covering the EU Green Deal
[https://data.europa.eu/en/news-events/news/learn-about-key-highlights-webinar-stories-use-cases-open-data-european-green-deal]
and A European way of life and an economy that works for people
[https://data.europa.eu/en/news-events/news/learn-about-key-highlights-webinar-stories-use-cases-open-data-foster-europeans].

The European Commission has defined six political priorities for 2019
to 2024
[https://commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy/priorities-2019-2024_en],
amongst which A new push for European democracy
[https://commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy/priorities-2019-2024/new-push-european-democracy_en].
The EU is based on shared democratic values such as a commitment to
fundamental human rights, the protection of a free and independent
press, upholding the rule of law and ensuring equality for everyone.
The political priority aims to nurture and strengthen these values
across Europe.

The webinar will start with an introduction to the political priority
and the role of open data, followed by presentations from
representatives of use cases and a panel discussion to ask questions
and share insights on open data supporting EU democracy.
