#26 Giving citizens a voice: European climate assemblies

In this episode with Aishwarya Machani, we explore how citizens’ assemblies are used to facilitate climate action and increase the legitimacy of the climate transition.

Can citizens’ assemblies help bridge political divides? Do their recommendations lead to meaningful change? And what can they teach us about building more democratic and effective responses to the climate crisis?

This season is produced in collaboration with RETOOL, a HORIZON EUROPE project aiming to advance our understanding of how to address the twin challenges of responding to the climate imperative while strengthening and reinvigorating democratic governance.
