Dazu bringen wir Menschen aus verschiedenen Bereichen zusammen, die heute schon Mitbestimmung und Beteiligung organisieren und verantworten. Sie schildern ihre Erfahrungen mit diesen Formaten und zeigen auf, was bereits gut funktioniert und wo sie Verbesserungsbedarf und Potenzial für Innovationen sehen. Im Anschluss an ihre Inputs möchten wir diese Erfahrungen diskutieren und freuen uns auf den Austausch mit dem Publikum. Unsere Gäste sind: * Ursula Triebswetter (Stadt München - Referat für Arbeit und Wirtschaft, Munich Urban Colab) * Timo Peters (Staatsministerium Baden-Württemberg - Stabsstelle für Zivilgesellschaft und Bürgerbeteiligung) * Rainald Thannisch (ver.di - Bereich Mitbestimmung) Die Veranstaltung bildet den Auftakt für unsere Diskussionsreihe Democratic Innovations Lab Conversations, in der wir darüber diskutieren, wo Theorie und Praxis demokratischer Innovationen heute stehen und was die drängenden Fragen für die Zukunft sind. I look forward to seeing many of you at these events! Best, Manon
