Cross-regional Learning Exchange: Citizen Deliberation for Effective Climate Action

Date
28 May 2026 - 11 June 2026
Location
Online (Zoom)
International IDEA's Climate Change and Democracy workstream is together with Democracy R&D, DemoReset, Extituto and iDeemos organizing a set of cross-regional learning exchanges about how to strengthen the impact of citizen deliberation for climate action.

The initiative builds on findings in International IDEA's 2024 report Deliberative Democracy and Climate Change: Exploring the Potential of Climate Assemblies in the Global South as well as the 2025 case study report Amazonian Climate Deliberation: Insights from Three Citizen Assemblies on Climate Finance Held Ahead of COP30. The learning exchanges will gather members of the citizen deliberation community to exchange strategies and experiences of how to ensure the impact of deliberation on declared public policy and implemented action, including on climate and environmental issues.

The events are aimed at practitioners and researchers with experience in the field of deliberative democracy on climate change issues. There are three interconnected sessions:
