Democracy isn't confined to periodic voting; it's an ongoing practice of collective decision-making.
This series explores models that extend beyond traditional elections—citizens’ assemblies, participatory budgeting, and direct democracy experiments worldwide. Building upon insights from recent newsletters, we investigate how to cultivate genuine democratic engagement between electoral cycles.
Proximate is an independent media platform covering movements for participatory problem-solving. We look at the news through the lens of money: how it’s given away, how it’s invested, and how it’s distributed by government.
We are a fiscally sponsored project of Movement Strategy Center.
