Check out this free online course on citizens’ assemblies from our member organization Delibera Brasil.

Social participation is back in Brazilian institutions. So, to prepare local policymakers to use citizen deliberation for creating and deciding on new policies, Delibera Brasil is launching the online course Citizens' Assemblies: democratic innovation in practice.

The classes will be available on the platform of the School of the Parliament of the City Council of São Paulo. Participants will understand how citizens’ assemblies can help local governments find solutions for complex policy issues together with citizens. They will learn from the hands-on experiences of the Brazilian cities Francisco Morato, Salvador and Toritama.

Registrations are open until March 17.
