What tools do we need to empower ourselves and our communities to create a more just and desirable future?

We are at a watershed moment of rising fascism and rising seas. Yet, our ability to connect and collaborate in creating our societies has never been greater. The urgent question is: How do we build democratic participation everywhere?

Remaking Democracy: How We Make the Worlds We Want is a guidebook for social change. It provides strategy and tools to create a more just and desirable future for everyone. It empowers people from all walks of life to analyze root causes of the problems we face and design actions, transforming ourselves as we transform the world. Stories of successful projects illuminate the book’s theory in action. Remaking Democracy teaches how to proliferate participation and grow democratic practices, so that those affected by systems can become their creators. It equips us to design the abundant variety of solutions our surviving and thriving require.
