Heeft het in dit grillige politieke klimaat nog zin om te gaan stemmen? Zeker. Is dat voldoende om de democratie overeind te houden? Absoluut niet. Daarom hebben deze gemeenten een permanent burgerparlement. Lees of luister hier het nieuwe verhaal van historicus Eva Rovers: corr.es/3aec24

Humanitarians have a responsibility to listen
Whose stories count – and who gets to tell them – is not a neutral question.
