We live in a time of global challenges including the climate emergency, pandemics and populism. Deliberative democracy leads the way towards mending and transforming societies. It inspires us to listen to fellow citizens and to nature. Deliberative transformations build the path towards democratic and sustainable futures.

The 6th Deliberative Democracy Summer School brings together postgraduate students and early career researchers with leading scholars in the field. The three-day event provides a unique opportunity to discuss emerging themes, empirical findings and methodological innovations in deliberative democracy research. It is designed to facilitate the exchange of ideas about the latest developments in the field, provide feedback on work-in-progress, and build a global network of deliberative democracy scholars.
