First come first serve
Promoting informed and deliberative dialogue on complex social and political issues, citizens' assemblies can be a valuable tool. They allow participants to explore different perspectives and develop solutions that reflect the needs and values of the broader community. Instead of the usual year-long series of facilitated discussions, we will use an interactive simulation to let participants experience citizens’ assemblies.
 
Session objective: Challenging assumptions – Have your beliefs and assumptions questioned, broaden your perspective and critically reflect on old and new questions and challenges.
