What does the future look like for societies, communities and people across Europe?

How can citizens and their voices be more active, included and represented within governance and decision-making arenas?

Where are our cities and democracies heading?

If these questions and debates interest you, then join this participatory workshop where we will be exploring them more.

Over the past few months, we've been looking into the key messages that traditional forms of media such as newspapers, TV and radio across Europe are sharing about the world we live in. Working with researchers and citizens in different countries, we've identified what these key messages tell us about our societies, democratic structures, civil society and much more.

In this workshop, we want to use these insights and signals to think about the future, and transform them into scenario stories. Together we will:
1. Explore and sense-check media signals and insights from across Europe
2. Discuss what these signals tell us about future opportunities and challenges to our democracies
3. Create scenario stories for how our cities can become spaces for active and inclusive citizen involvement in democracy, governance and decision-making

The workshop will be delivered in English.

The workshop will be held on Zoom and a link will be provided to attendees upon registration. You can find out more information about the event and register for it here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/from-signals-to-scenarios-stories-about-how-society-democracy-could-be-tickets-157921588723
