European Group on Ethics in Science and New Technologies (EGE) handed over its Opinion on Democracy in the Digital Age to Commission Vice-President Dubravka Šuica.

Requested by President von der Leyen, the Opinion will guide the Commission in its efforts to address challenges to democracy and to foster it. In their opinion, the EGE warns that democracy can quickly become an empty shell if it is not underpinned by fundamental rights and the values it seeks to protect and promote.
