The “European Charter of Active Citizenship” sets out the rights and duties of civic organizations that participate in the decision-making processes related to public policies. Promoted by FONDACA and Active Citizenship Network between 2005-2006, the Charter has overcome the European borders, as demonstrated by the citations in this document: “Civil Society Partnerships and Development Policies: Emerging Trends”, commissioned by UNESCO and written by International Federation of University Women, and “Redesigning local democracy”, published by the Local Government Community Development and Services Association of Australia.
Cittadinanzattiva has decided to become a partner of the Fight the Fakes campaign because it provides continuity and a global dimension to the activities in the field of drug counterfeiting and access to accurate information which have already been priorities at national-level in Italy over the years for Cittadinanzattiva.
