DemocracyNext is an international non-profit, non-partisan research and action institute.
Our mission is to build new institutions for the next democratic paradigm of citizen participation, representation, and deliberation. We want to create a more just, joyful, and collaborative future where everyone has meaningful power to shape their societies. There is another democratic future beyond broken electoral politics or autocracy, and we want to help make it a reality. We believe that by tapping into the ideas, energy, and collective wisdom of everyone, we will be able to better address societal challenges, overcome polarisation, and strengthen trust.
