Exploring Democracy and Society

In the DemokratieLabo, you have the opportunity to reflect on your ideas about democracy, your convictions and your experiences. The exhibition invites you to discuss on issues around the diversity of Luxembourg’s society and the functioning of our political system.

Visiting the laboratory

Age from 12 to 99 years

Individual visitors, families, groups, school classes – everybody is welcome!

The exhibition Den DemokratieLabo is self-explanatory. A guided tour is not necessary. You can discover the exhibition alone or in a team. A notepad guides you through it, so that you can write down your reflections. At the end of the visit, you enter the notes into a tablet and receive a lab report summarising your research. But don’t worry! Most of the time there is a helpful lab assistant in the DemokratieLabo who is available to answer any questions.

Three possible paths

You choose you own way through the DemokratieLabo, depending on the time you have available, whether you want to read a lot or a little text or whether you have younger children with you.

For communes

All citizens are welcome

Invite the inhabitants of your communes to explore democracy, to reflect on their ideas on living together in your community.

For local authorities, people responsible in community commissions, youth centres and associations.

Den DemokratieLabo can be a starting point for thinking about democratic processes around participation and addressing issues of citizenship education. In the DemokratieLabo, the ZpB offers trainings for those who are interested, for instance local authorities and people from civil society.

For school classes

The laboratory is particularly suitable for visits by school classes of all secondary school types.

No preparation is needed!
