- 2. As a brief introduction to this module we would like to do a clarification on what we understand for some concepts: Participation: the right we have to engage in society and in the decision- making process about issues which impact our lives (see the module Community participation) Democracy: a type of political system based on the people. It is the people who elected their representatives at decision-making bodies (you can watch the video in the next slide: What is Social Democracy?) Active citizenship: involvement of individuals in public life and especially in the life of their communities with the aim to improve it through their personal skills. Volunteering: in the context of families, education and schools, the involvement of families in Parents’ Organisations. When you are engaged with the Parents’ Organisation of your children school(s) and you don’t receive money for it, then you are a volunteer.
