“We believe that by standing in solidarity with Palestinians and advocating for peace, we contribute to a more just and equitable society.”-Ms Xoliswa Daku, Chairperson of Council

✨ The generosity of mind and spirit of everyone involved in #PPSchool24 - students, panelists, facilitators, crew, those not seen, and those not here - cannot be overstated. Thank you to everyone who made this possible.

Closing the Participedia summer school at the University of Western Cape. Thank you, South Africa, for reminding me what a safe, critical, and powerful place academia can be.

Participedia Summer School 2024, held simultaneously in Cape Town, South Africa, and Newfoundland, Canada, closed on a high note. Our Design Progress Sharing Workshop included presentations on collaborative design projects for transnational democracy. Looking forward to 2025.
