📌 SAVE THE DATE

We are thrilled to announce our partnership with deliberativa.org to host the upcoming Autumn School on Citizens' Assemblies in Barcelona on October 17-18, 2024.

Join us for a transformative training opportunity where local and international experts will guide you through the fundamentals of Citizens' Assemblies. Over two days, we will cover every step of the design and implementation process through interactive formats and insights from experts across Europe.

The Autumn School is part of the Expanded Forum on Deliberation, Creativity, and Democracy (Foro Expandido sobre Deliberación, Creatividad y Democracia) taking place during the same week, with more exciting events soon to be announced. This is an initiative by local actors promoting citizen participation and deliberative democracy in Spain and Portugal.

We look forward to seeing you in Barcelona this autumn!

🙌 Two days of collective learning have come to an end, but the journey of implementation begins now!

I’m really curious to see how climate assemblies and juries work.

So I enjoyed this piece on how local people in Bude, Cornwall are mobilising to face the climate crisis head on in the face of indifference from the Tories in central government.

🌍 There is often scepticism about the impact that citizens' assemblies can have on addressing the climate and ecological crises.

This is the core question at our upcoming #KNOCA workshop!

This blog summarises our new paper in Public Adminstration, where we take a governance perspective to examine how the recent wave of European climate assemblies have attempted to connect to the complex constellation of actors that make up the climate governance system.
