Redesigning Democracy with Dr Ruth Backstrom and Morag Gamble
Manage episode 395044051 series 2769802
Tune in to this episode with Dr Ruth Backstrom - author, facilitator and public professor - to explore why we need to rethink our democratic political systems, what a new democracy could look like and how we can make it happen.
When we talk about politics, we often associated it with the 'us and them' - the distant, polarised landscape we see in the news, and in our discussions with those around us.
Instead, Ruth's idea of a new democracy rests on citizen assemblies - a place to make a difference and learn through conversation - a participatory form of governance!
Ruth focuses on the importance of teaching emotional intelligence to find empathy not only with other people, but with the planet too. To learn about a holistic form of approaching politics and the stories we share around it, listen to this episode!
Dr Backstrom has recently released a book 'Igniting a Bold New Democracy: Empowering Citizens Through Game-changing Reforms' - a great guide into how we can create positive change in our political decision-making processes! Check out her work at www.ruthbackstrom.com to explore more.
