There are three demands of Extinction Rebellion – Tell The Truth, Act Now and Create a Citizens’ Assembly. But what does this mean in practice? What actually IS a Citizens’ Assembly?!
The workshop will go back to basics: what are citizens’ assemblies; how do they work; why do we want one to tackle the climate and ecological emergency?
The first 30 minutes will be a presentation on just that, and the remaining 30 minutes will be an open Q&A to answer your questions LIVE. If you’re watching on facebook, twitter or youtube, please submit your questions in the comments.
We will also speak about CAAN (the Citizens’ Assembly Advocate Network), a new project that aims to create a network of advocates, who will raise awareness of this form of deliberative democracy across the UK at the grassroots level.
