OPEN SESSIONS: SUSTAINING DELIBERATION, FROM THEORY TO ACTION
What if another organization like yours has already found that answer? Across four open sessions, mentors from different corners of the Global South shared with the Demo.Reset Mentorship Program the tools, lessons, and tensions that shape the sustainability of deliberation — from laying the foundations of a model, to turning participation into real impact, defending it against co-optation, and sustaining it from within each organization.
What do I find here?
The stages of the same journey, thinking about how to sustain participatory exercises over time?
