Democratic innovation

Democratic innovation refers to new ideas and practices that enhance how democracy functions, making it more inclusive, participatory, and effective. This can involve methods like citizen assemblies, where ordinary people discuss and make recommendations on public issues, or digital tools that enable wider public engagement in decision-making. The goal is to strengthen democracy by ensuring that more voices are heard and that decisions reflect the collective will of the people, leading to better governance and trust in political processes. Ultimately, it seeks to adapt and improve democratic systems to meet contemporary challenges.
