Workshop on Systems Change

In this workshop, we discussed how citizens' assemblies could address the underlying systemic issues that are central to a truly transformative response to the planet's environmental and social crises.

‍

The discussion drew on the presentation of a draft new guide on this critical topic, authored by Claire Mellier of the Iswe Foundation and Stuart Capstick of the Centre for Climate Change and Social Transformations (CAST). This presentation provided a foundational framework for dialogue exploring innovative approaches and strategies for using citizens' assemblies to address these complex challenges.
