Democratic Design. Space for Cooperation, Collaboration and Compromise

At the core of Democratic Design are democratic planning processes and the spaces they create. The presented projects amplify marginalised voices, encourage participation and inspire collective visions for the future. Dialogue and exchange are essential conditions for democracy, cultivating the ability to accept differing viewpoints and to compromise – the very foundations of democratic culture. This conviction underpins Democratic Design – Space for Cooperation, Collaboration and Compromise, curated by the Aedes team and presented at Aedes in Berlin.

Our democracy is currently experiencing difficult times. Many people have lost faith in civic engagement, withdrawing instead into protest or resignation. Others seek greater inclusion but are denied equal access.
