Your donation will support our work to give citizens more power and improve collective decision making.

​In this DemocracyNext webinar, we launch a new paper reflecting on the lessons from DemocracyNext's Cities Programme - our experience advising two cities and two regions across three continents: Esch-sur-Alzette, Vilnius, Kerewan, and Central Oregon. It makes the case for approaching citizens' assemblies not as one-off events dependent on political will at a moment in time, but as new institutions to which power can be shifted. Doing so, we argue, requires a completely different mindset. It needs to be approached like a marathon, not a sprint.

Our three-stage guide to accompany you through designing, running, and acting on the results of a citizens’ assembly - dig in, and share widely!
