Civil-society-led climate assemblies keep deliberative democracy sharp. Make demands, not just recommendations. Deliberative democracy isn’t about advising power. I’s about challenging it.

“By embracing a more radical model of deliberative democracy that focuses on the long-term collective good rather than short-term political interests, Norway is setting a precedent for other countries” #Norway #deliberativedemocracy #FuturePanel #NoShortTermPoliticalInterests

Sophie Howe explains why the government should listen to its citizens’ calls to institutionalize long-term thinking.

The West has pretty much completed the transition from democracy to oligarchy.
It will never lead the world again.
But if it wants to retain any internal cohesion or economic heft it will need to democratize.
To put the people in charge of the government.

We often get Citizens’ Assemblies backwards. Don't fit a problem to an institution. Instead:
☑️Define the problem.
☑️Assess strengths & weaknesses.
☑️Choose the right participatory tool.
Align resources with the problem, not the other way around.
