The Democracy Innovation Hub is excited to launch a monthly drop-in webinar series that operates like a reading group, but with short videos followed by discussion. Each one hour session, starting in February 2026, will include one ten minute video from our free online Democracy Innovation Academy. This is not a formal college course - it's a drop-in academy and networking opportunity for those hoping to learn more, or to connect with organizations, practitioners, or facilitators.
How do assemblies fit into the history of democracy and the American republic? How do climate assemblies work? What does a permanent assembly look like? Join us for this short course featuring 12 videos on the history of citizen assemblies and sortition.
