We explore digital democracy from a variety of perspectives. We focus on democratic self-organization and community involvement—keeping it engaging and fun. Our discussions cover topics like deliberation, informed decision-making, liquid democracy, and more. We're delighted to showcase LiquidFeedback, a comprehensive framework for integrated deliberation and decision-making. Through a unique blend of stories, insights, and a mix of words and music, we bring these ideas to life.

Deliberation and informed decision-making is the focus of the third episode in our podcast series. The "Great Taco Debate" among high school students highlights the empowerment that can come from deliberation leading to an informed decision. This uplifting experience is reflected in the song "Para todos hay un taco." Enjoy!

With quill in hand, or by the finger’s touch,
the learned and the lowly cast their will
upon the waves of this translucent sea,
to see it swell and guide the ship of state.
Yet not alone doth each man stand, forsooth!
A proxy may he choose, a champion
to bear his banner high upon the field.

We discover one of the world's oldest participatory democracies. The Haudenosaunee shaped modern democracy with a system of government centuries ahead of its time. From influencing the U.S. Constitution with principles such as federalism, checks and balances, and bicameralism to their visionary "Seven Generations" approach to sustainability, their legacy is a powerful reminder of the sophistication of indigenous political systems.
