Johan Galster and I had the chance to share how Citizens' Assemblies have the power to systematically change the way we take decisions about our cities. Check out the episode below to learn how Copenhagen is doing this and how DemocracyNext wants to help more cities do the same!
En automne 2024 se tiendront les élections législatives en #Autriche 🇦🇹, l'occasion pour Ieva Česnulaitytė DemocracyNext de rappeler qu'il y a une matière renouvelable, inépuisable et non encore exploitée à mobiliser : l'intelligence collective citoyenne au-delà des élections.
Plenty of food for thought from Demos’ excellent panel on #CollaborativeDemocracy - Apolitical Foundation’s Lisa Witter Claudia Chwalisz from DemocracyNext and Georgia Gould, Leader of Camden Council - very firmly chaired by Demos’ Miriam Levin #CollaborativeDemocracy Network

🇬🇧 In the UK, did the Labour Party The Labour Party really backtrack on an initiative to launch Citizens' Assemblies within one day?
Unlikely.
Moving forward, Assemblies must be organized in a transparent and non-partisan way. Read our deep dive: demnext.substack.com/p/its-a-debate…
