This year, 70 teams of policymakers and civil society leaders from around the world are launching or expanding participatory democracy initiatives in their communities. From climate resilience to youth inclusion, gender equity to institutional trust, these reformers are co-creating solutions to meet today’s most urgent challenges.
They’re using a range of participatory methods — including policymaking, budgeting, and citizens’ assemblies — and many are blending tools to suit local needs. Over the next six months, they’ll receive expert mentorship, hands-on training, and access to People Powered’s global community of members. They will offer peer support with our cutting-edge resources developed through collective experience.
