Germany – Citizens' Assembly on Climate-Neutral Economy & Consumption (June 2024, Berlin)

The citizens’ assembly in Germany examined pathways to a climate-neutral economy with a focus on individual consumption choices and related policy requirements. 

60 participants from Berlin and the neighbouring region Brandenburg were recruited by stratified random selection. 

The topic was developed based on a prior webinar series on post-growth economics by the project partner FUE. The deliberation was further enriched by an expert Delphi involving 16 experts from diverse economic disciplines, which preceded the assembly. The results provided a well-rounded knowledge base.
