Programmes MSCAThis factsheet lists key figures and success stories on MSCA-funded research and training on Democracy.
Under Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe, close to 500 MSCA projects have conducted democracy-related research, addressing areas such as democratic institutions and the rule of law, civic participation, polarisation and extremism, disinformation, media freedom, digital democracy, trust in science and evidence-informed policymaking. While many projects contribute to more than one policy area, democratic resilience and the rule of law are at the core of most MSCA projects on democracy. MSCA-funded projects on democracy strongly contribute to EU’s key policies such as the European Democracy Shield and EU Strategy for Civil Society, by addressing a wide range of topics on fundamental rights and values through interdisciplinary and comparative research and training. More than 400 of these projects address diversity-related issues, including gender, identity, aging population, social representation, migration, and intercultural interaction.

Its task within the project is to further develop technologies to effectively detect sources of polarisation and disinformation, allowing journalists and moderators to quickly mitigate the harmful effects of such messages.
