This article is an offshoot of our Extinction Rebellion page, and focuses on XR's (Extinction Rebellion's) call for a transformation in our democracy to facilitate the necessary policies to address the climate and ecological emergency for all of us.
This transformation, to be successful, XR believe requires new democratic tools to be embedded into the DNA of the culture at all levels from local communities to the highest levels of government.
The Future Democracy Hub is described as "a central location and resource to support this transformation and all those who want to take an active part in it."[1]
