Events to improve your knowledge of Citizens' Assemblies

Discuss our central demand at your group meeting

If you are part of a local or community group (XR or not!) why not devote a meeting to the UK-wide Citizens’ Assembly on Climate and Ecological Justice?

Activities to engage and educate a group around Citizens' Assemblies:

• Watch the presentaion: Why XR demands a citizens assembly

• Watch this 4 minute video: America in one room - how a weekend of discussing politics shifted the views of these Americans - a great explanation of how participants can work together.

• Request a visit by a CA expert

Why not plan an outreach event or a citizens' assembly action to raise public awareness.

Organise a talk by a CA expert

Invite an expert to talk at your meeting.

We have people with expert knowledge of citizens' assemblies and our central demand who can be booked to give a talk.

Ideally we need more than 20 participants - so join with other nearby groups (XR or not!) If possible we'll come in person, but we're always happy to present and answer questions over Zoom.

Contact us at xr-CitizensAssembly@protonmail.com. Tell us the dates, times, location (if in person). It's a half hour presentation with time for follow up questions.

Idea: Perform a mini-CA selection

Take a large group of rebels. Ask them basic questions about themselves.

Sort into pots and them randomly select. Rebels will get somee understanding how CA participants are selected.
