About DemocracyNext
DemocracyNext is a research and action institute—founded by former OECD analysts —working to shift political and legislative power to everyday people through empowered Citizens’ Assemblies.
We design and build new institutions for the next democratic paradigm of citizen participation, representation by lottery, and deliberation.
Non-profit and non-partisan, our work is to develop a more just, joyful, and collaborative democratic future.
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.

In a context of democratic crisis, our team is exploring new ideas for another democratic future and working to bring them to life. By researching, implementing and reporting on new forms of representative democratic institutions, such as permanent Citizens' Assemblies, where representation passes through sortition (selection by lottery), we enable you to explore how your institution can adopt new forms of democratic process.
Our newsletter has updates about our research, projects, and high-level events. We also like to share the most exciting advances in the field of democratic innovation - our work is part of a wider ecosystem of change makers.
