ScaleDem project launches video on scaling democratic innovations
A dynamic, multi-voice introduction to the initiative and its mission to improve democratic innovations across different political contexts and sectors
The ScaleDem project has released a video about scaling democratic innovations in Europe and beyond.
Now available to watch on the ScaleDem website and YouTube channel, the video presents perspectives from policy, research, practitioners, advocacy, and private sector actors. In the words of project coordinator Camille Dobler from Missions Publiques:
"The video script was shaped through a collaborative workshop with input from all 13 partners, spanning research, NGOs, and communication experts. It reflects ScaleDem's belief that lasting democratic change depends on collective, cross-disciplinary effort!"
Funded by the European Union, ScaleDem works to bridge the gap between theory and practice. It provides tested methodologies and a collaborative infrastructure to help embed, expand, deepen, and improve democratic innovations across different political contexts and sectors.
"Democracy is everywhere, also at work," says one of the voices, reflecting the perspective of economic stakeholders.
"ScaleDem gives us a space to learn from both success and failure," adds a practitioner.
"We need to go beyond mapping what works, we need to build a sustainable scaling infrastructure," concludes a researcher.
The narrating voices also highlight the four dimensions of scaling at the heart of the project:
- Scaling high: embedding participation into institutions
- Scaling out: expanding across levels, spaces, and sectors
- Scaling deep: rooting innovations in culture
- Scaling in: enhancing the quality of democratic practice
