DRIVE CHANGE. FROM THE GROUND UP.
Civic Participation in the Digital Age
Democracy thrives when citizens choose to actively participate in civic and political life to drive change. From citizens looking to advance the values of inclusivity, diversity and equality to neighbourhood groups coming together to shape the schools in their community, these large movements and small local campaigns all around the world are demonstrating the power of explicit engagement, technology, and new ways of organizing. DemocracyXChange is about the practical campaign skills and tools individuals and startup teams need to connect and make change happen. Come join us.

“With DemocracyXChange we are working to bring together a community of engaged individuals, young and old, who are cross-partisan, politics-positive, and discourse-driven. We hope that DemocracyXChange will catalyze explicit change in our communities by sharing techniques, tools, and best practices from civic campaigns around the world and with each other.”
