The STG Transnational Democracy Programme is an interdisciplinary action-research hub committed to producing knowledge that empowers the public in democratising policy making across borders.
Through its projects, events and publications, the Programme explores cutting-edge innovations in representative, direct, deliberative, digital democracy and synergies between these emerging forms of participation and the world of social movements and activism. The Programme shares the notion that the future of democracy depends on a global understanding of how political engagement can be renewed, as well as holistic ethos towards institutional change. Particular attention is therefore given to the question of how the EU can learn from efforts to transforming governance, and the role Europe can play in fostering an interconnected democratic renewal to tackle matters of planetary importance.
