The Southwark Citizens’ Jury on Climate Change
The jury saw 25 local citizens consider the question:
“What needs to change in Southwark to tackle the emergency of climate change fairly and effectively for people and nature?“
The Jury members came up with a set of recommendations including:
- Removing barriers to local residents walking.
- Affordable, accessible and appealing public transport.
- Improving the energy efficiency of housing.
- Increasing transparency and accountability on council activities.
During this process, the jury members took part in game-like experiments as a way to make deliberation and participation more effective and enjoyable. You can read the blog on what happened here.
