In order to create a fruitful exchange among the participants we chose the simulation game Transolvia. This simulation game focuses on the role of civil society as a crucial element of vivid democracies. Especially during transition phases, civil society actors play an important role in promoting democratic principles and a value-system based on universal human rights. However, many times civil society actors struggle in cooperating among themselves and staying independent from national governments or international donors. Thus, the main question is: what are the potentials and what are the limits of civil society?
