Millennium Fellowship Project: Combatting Corruption in Eastern Europe via Civic Education
The project is entitled CORRUPT.EDU and, as the title indicates, it is a educational program aimed to target corruption via a civic education program.
I am ethnically Romanian and my home country, along with many others in Eastern Europe and across the globe, has been experiencing poor political climates since the 1990s. misinformation campaigns and political inertia are ever-present. CORRUPT.EDU aims to target both of these symptoms by building an online platform where accurate, factual political information is readily available in language accessible to all.
