On Saturday, sceptical. By Sunday: “Why aren’t we the government?” That’s political agency: not being consulted once decisions are already made, but being trusted to wrestle with the question itself. What would you put before a citizens’ assembly of ordinary people?

The image features a bold orange vertical banner on the left with the text "Politics Should Be People" in large white letters and a white arrow pointing right. On the right, a red-tinted photo shows a large group of people seated in a circular meeting room. White text over the photo reads, "A return to democracy's first principles.

Democracy is handmade by us. It is not something done to us, it is something we shape together, through participation, care and the courage to imagine better ways forward. Artist: Chaaya Prabhat Location: Goa, India Chaaya Prabhat for Fine Acts x OWoN

The Global Assembly is a way out of a situation where every person, every member of a small society, can express themselves and make their own suggestions. This is a step forward to justice.” - Tatiana, Citizens Assembly Member. Text below reads: "Citizens' assemblies put people at the center of decisions that matter."

This is Eden. Eden was part of a citizen-assembly-style process on work-related immigration, involving nearly 100 people from across the UK. There are different ways to do democracy. This is one. Read the report: bit.ly/3UIaSrl

Democracy is an all-species matter. The choices we make together shape the world every species depends on. What is democracy if it truly reflected our shared future? Artist: Praveen Yarramilli Location: Goa, India Fine Acts X OWoN #Democracy #CitizensAssemblies #DeliberativeDemocracy

Citizens’ Assemblies show us what becomes possible when people from every walk of life are given the chance to deliberate seriously. The process is what we need; vital, representative, and deeply human. Follow OWoN to learn more about how we can unite.

The image is a poster with the title "Lessons from the Other Democracy" in large orange letters. Beneath the title, there's a text block discussing the importance of citizens' assemblies and how they provide a different way to tackle rapid changes and complex issues. It emphasizes the role of public participation in reinforcing democracy. The background has a crumpled paper texture.

In ancient Athens, many roles were chosen by lottery, not by campaign, wealth or connections. That is called sortition. Today, citizens’ assemblies bring it back: ordinary people, selected to reflect society, making difficult decisions together. #Sortition #CitizensAssemblies

The image features a large, bold title on the left stating, "Was Ancient Greece Right?" Below, smaller text reads, "What if we brought it back?" On the right, a photo shows a circular seating arrangement with numerous people, suggesting an assembly or council. Text beside the photo reads, "Democracy's original hack: random selection." The color scheme is primarily orange and red.

A large circular assembly room filled with people, viewed from above. The text reads: "FROM ATHENS TO TODAY" and details the democratic roots of citizens' assemblies from ancient Athens to present day.

Artists are creating images calling for change worldwide. George Kontos made this during a 48-hour Fine Acts × OWoN SPRINT 1927 Artspace in Kypseli, Athens. Participating in democracy should leave us with a positive feeling. How do we keep it that way?

A group of red and pink humanoid figures engages in various activities on a large, abstract white structure that resembles a flower petal. One figure waters a plant at the top, while others are sitting, climbing, or interacting with each other. The background is a light blue sky with a calm blue sea below. Large text on the upper left reads, "DEMOCRACY NEEDS US TO BLOOM.

Democracy is more than a ballot. Citizens’ assemblies give ordinary people time to think, listen and decide together. A better way to make difficult decisions.

Bright orange poster with bold black text reading "WHO DECIDES?" Below, it says "Not just politicians. Ordinary people can be chosen by lottery." The bottom features "CITIZENS' ASSEMBLIES" with a right-facing arrow graphic.

An orange poster with bold text reading: "We need more than a ballot. Now."

People aren't apathetic. They're alienated from systems that leave them powerless. Agree or disagree? Artist: Ceren Dirikol Location: Postane, Istanbul, Turkey Fine Acts X @oneworldornone.bsky.social

An illustration features a winding purple pathway. Along the path, individuals perform various activities: gardening, using a laptop, and sitting in a wheelchair with a cat nearby. Another person reaches for a pencil. Text across the image reads "Our choices become our future" against a blue background.
