The Members of France's Citizens' Assembly on End of Life want to be heard.

Does France's pension reform controversy highlight the need for deliberative democracy?

tl;dr - yes.

Great interview with Yves Sintomer. We need more deliberative assemblies that have real power and are not just consultative.

Good piece on deliberative democracy for AI governance by @cookie.

The breadth of examples is even wider than suggested as well - the OECD #delibwave database that @ICesnulaityte and I created has ~600 cases.

Lots of good practice to learn from https://www.oecd.org/governance/innovative-citizen-participation/
