Have your say, Canberra 🗣️On 16 November, four MLAs from across the political spectrum will join Prof. Yves Dejaeghere — one of the architects of East Belgium’s permanent Citizens’ Assembly — to explore one question:
Would a standing Citizens’ Assembly help the ACT?
We will be joined by:
Chiaka Barry MLA (Liberal) — Member for Ginninderra, Shadow Attorney-General and Shadow Minister for Multicultural Affairs.
Taimus Werner-Gibbings MLA (Labor) - Member for Brindabella and Labor Whip.
Andrew Braddock MLA (Greens) - Member for Yerrabi, Deputy Speaker and Deputy Leader of the ACT Greens.
Fiona Carrick MLA (Independent) - Member for Murrumbidgee.
Guiding the conversation will be Genevieve Jacobs AM — one of Canberra’s best-known media and community voices. A journalist for 30 years across print, radio and digital media, and now CEO of Hands Across Canberra.
There’s a panel. But there’s no sidelines.
You’re not coming to watch a conversation about citizen participation. You’re coming to be part of it and shape what deeper democracy in Canberra could look like.
Bring your questions. Bring your ideas. Bring your voice
