Description

The exhibition uses the metaphor of the human body to analyze the vital functions of democracy, where on a timeline in the form of an ECG curve it shows the state of democracy from the 1st Czechoslovakia to the present. Students will present the history of democracy, show how its vital organs function, what threatens the vital functions of democracy and what each of us can do today to keep democracy breathing. During the exhibition, the visitor makes responsible decisions to find out what he or she can do in his or her everyday life to save the "patient" (democracy). Become oxygen carriers with us so that we can together shout: Breathe democracy!
