The re:constitution programme

The rule of law is a prerequisite for the protection of democracy, fundamental rights and other common values in the European Union. It is essential for the functioning of the European Union, but has been recurrently breached in some member states for years. Therefore, the active protection, ways and means of upholding the rule of law have become much-discussed political, legal and social issues. The re:constitution Fellows pursue their own topical projects to address these developments and challenges to democracy and the rule of law in Europe, adding their voices to this European discourse. They become part of a European exchange network of scholars and practitioners, building bridges between diverse personal backgrounds, disciplines and countries.
