The Paris Citizens' Assembly

In this bonus episode, I talk with Anouch Toranian , the Deputy Mayor of Paris, Yves Dejaeghere , the Executive Director of the Federation for Innovation in Democracy, Europe and Claudia Chwalisz , leader of i nnovation in citizen engagement with the OECD about the design and establishment of the Paris Citizens' Assembly. The Paris Citizens' Assembly was established in 2021 with 100 Parisians representing the diversity of the city of Paris. The Assembly is charged with evaluating past programs or policies, setting up citizens' juries and determining the topic for Paris' annual participatory budgeting process . The Assembly is unique in that the Council are sharing with the Assembly members responsibility for designing how it works.
