The Global Forum on Modern Direct Democracy 2022 is an opportunity for people everywhere to show our commitment to democracy at a time when the stakes have never been higher.

This conference - the 10th forum of its kind since 2008 but the first since 2020 - will take place from September 21-25 in Lucerne, Switzerland.

The forum will address what has been lost over the past two years - but its focus will be on the future. Participants will discuss how they can strengthen the democratic power of children and young people. They will deal intensively with the digital possibilities and technological limits of democracy. They will examine how democracy can promote ecological imperatives and consider new strategies for building and expanding democracy at the transnational level.
