On the 21 of June, 2023, WFD North Macedonia, in cooperation with the Presidential Center for Political Education (PCPO), organized an expert debate to promote the findings of the Analysis of Political Education in North Macedonia. The analysis shows that in the educational programs for primary and secondary education in the educational system, topics from the field of political education are dispersed in several subjects such as: civic education, sociology and introduction to law. At the same time, there is a serious authoritarian charge among young people in North Macedonia, especially when it comes to values related to ethnic/national themes or democratic state management. An additional sign for the need for political education are the findings of the Westminster research, according to which even 57% of young people are not at all interested and do not follow political events.
