Scoping report: Future challenges to democracy | CoP CC on Participatory and Deliberative Democracy
The report from the European Commission identifies 10 key challenges and emerging trends impacting European democratic systems and suggests future policy options. These challenges are structured across three interconnected levels: citizens and societal dynamics, the information and knowledge environment, and institutions and the democratic system. This framework aims to provide a comprehensive and integrated view of democracy as a connected ecosystem, emphasising how challenges in one area can affect the entire system.

The subtitle of my talk was "Find Answers by Living the Questions."
