Communications & sustainability
In this session, we asked ourselves how to sustain participation beyond the event, how to communicate without simplifying, and how to nurture deliberative processes in difficult contexts. The conversation covered experiences from conflict zones, territories affected by climate change, and scenarios where participation can be risky. We learned that communicating is also protecting, that sometimes art opens more doors than reports, and that for deliberation to have a future, we need networks, deep listening, and spaces where we can imagine other possible worlds together.
