Join us at Democracy Drinks, where the democracy sector comes together to share insights and get things moving. A sector across systemic and everyday democracy where experts, decision-makers, professionals and activists share the latest democracy research, studies, strategies, projects, legislation and ideas.
Democracy Drinks is a regular occasion for open, impartial and inspiring presentations and conversations about democracy, its evolution, new and old formats. The concept is international and is held in several locations across Europe. Read more about Democracy Drinks and the initiator Defend Democracy here: https://democracydrinks.org/
