From 28 to 31 July 2025, a workshop was organised in Guinea-Bissau to support the integration of themes related to the African Charter on Democracy, Elections and Governance into the country’s national school curricula.

Implemented within the framework of ECES’ Pro-Electoral Integrity project in partnership with the African Union Commission’s Department of Political Affairs, Peace and Security (AUC-PAPS), and funded by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, the workshop brought together AU experts, regional specialists, and national stakeholders from the education and governance sectors.

The activity aimed to identify key themes related to democracy and good citizenship for integration into national curricula and to develop a country-specific implementation document. The workshop also contributed to preparing future training activities and the development of pedagogical materials for schools across Guinea-Bissau.
