Democracy at a Crossroads: The 2025 Democracy R&D Conference
Mark your calendars—on 15-16 October 2025, 300 deliberative democracy professionals will gather in Brussels, Belgium, a country with a rich history of democratic innovation, from the G1000 movement to the Ostbelgien Permanent Citizens' Council.
The global conference on deliberative democracy is more than just an exchange of ideas—it’s a call to action. As the deliberative wave moves at different speeds across the world, democratic innovations are being tested in real-time. Will public deliberation rise to the challenge?
At this pivotal moment, we will: 🔹 Examine how deliberative democracy can counter polarization and democratic backsliding. 🔹 Explore real pathways to systemic change. 🔹 Equip practitioners, policymakers, and advocates with new strategies for impact.
We are delighted to host this edition in collaboration with G1000, Missions Publiques and Democratic Society!
