EMBRACing changE: Overcoming Blockages and Advancing Democracy in the European Neighbourhood (EMBRACE)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The EMBRACE project<\/a> analyses authoritarian resilience and de-democratization in the European Neighbourhood. It does so through an inter-disciplinary, multi-method and cross-regional assessment of both blockages to and drivers of democratisation in 12 case study countries across Eastern Europe, Southern Caucasus, Western Balkans, Northern Africa and the Middle East.<\/p>\n

Together, 14 international partner institutions<\/a> will develop innovative policy tools to improve the European Union\u2019s capacity for democracy promotion: from above \u2013 through institution-building and collaboration with reform-minded elites, and from below \u2013 through engagement with civil society and social movements.<\/p>\n

The main objectives of EMBRACE are to:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Assess the state of European Union\u2019s democracy promotion in the European Neighbourhood<\/li>\n
  2. Advance evidence-based knowledge on blockages to democratisation in the European Neighbourhood and ways to overcome them based on locally-owned solutions<\/li>\n
  3. Strengthen the capacity of policy-makers and local stakeholders to incentivise resilient political actors to embrace democratic change and enhance partnerships for a stable and secure European Neighbourhood in which democracy can flourish<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The distinctive methodological feature of EMBRACE as a collaborative research endeavour is its emphasis on the combined use of quantitative and qualitative comparative research methods for the empirical study. Quantitative methods will include a large analysis, based on a new dataset assessing the effects of EU instruments and the impact of internal and external blockages on democratisation. Qualitative fieldwork methodologies will include stakeholder surveys, in-depth expert interviews, ethnographic interviews, focus group discussions, and participation in formal and informal interactions.<\/p>\n

    The project is coordinated by Dr. V\u00e9ronique Dudouet Berghof Foundation Operations gGmbH in Berlin and the scientific coordinator is PD Dr. Sonja Grimm from the University of Konstanz.<\/p>\n

    The total project budget is 2,8 Mio Euro and is funded by the European Union in the call \u201cHORIZON-CL2-2021-DEMOCRACY-01\u201d.<\/p>\n
