How Do We Get Out of This Mess? Why We Need a Citizen's Assembly

R RoseLB Public Seen by 343

When: 13th October 2019
What: People's assembly with panel input

  • Introduce CAs and related approached at school level so that children grow up as decision-makers.
  • There should be a fly on the wall documentary following the French CA (with soap opera storylines)
  • Media around a common point of reference (ie. jury system)
  • use word of mouth
  • Introduce these processes into peoples daily life
  • Target communities that are going to be affected first
  • Build on existing community forums (ie. town hall meetings)
  • Give councils the resources and power to deliver on CAs and their results
  • Show one in action (live stream)
  • Sue the govt. (like French example)
  • Door knocking in neighbourhood (community mural-making)
  • Focus on good stories

Hello!
I'm not sure where to write this, as the permissions settings on this group seem to be pretty locked down.
I've set up XR UK's main Loomio group tiny.cc/xrloomio and would love this link to be added to the Group description for Peoples Assemblies if that sounds good? Just so we're not working quite so much in isolation - we are at least aware of each other and can join our various spaces if we want to!

I actually personally would suggest this group be a SUBgroup of XR UK...unless this is an international group?
