On October 2, the Samara Centre for Democracy hosted a conversation at the Institute for Research on Public Policy about civic engagement in Canada.
This in-person event featured panelists Malorie Flon (Institute du Nouveau Monde), Bianca Wylie (Digital Public) and Sarah Yaffe (MASS LBP) discussing the best practices for increasing public participation in politics. They explored various innovations, both online and in-person, that enhance local democracy and bridge the gap between citizens and ‘political elites’. The conversation was moderated by the Samara Centre for Democracy’s CEO Sabreena Delhon.
