Democratic Fitness

Muscles

Have you ever thought that it is important to exercise your democratic muscles? From empathy and active listening to curiosity and compromise. These are examples of 'muscles' that you need if you want to make an active contribution to a healthy and strong democracy. In such a democracy, some people feel that their voices and ideas matter and are responsible for ensuring that others are also heard. Exercising your democratic muscles is not only fun, it also grows your democratic self-confidence.

Bureau of Citizens' Council

On Saturday afternoon, April 6, Bureau Burgerberaad will open the doors of the very first democratic fitness gym in the Netherlands in Tolhuistuin. Under professional guidance, you can work on these important but often neglected democratic muscle groups. You are guaranteed to walk out the door with loads of democratic self-confidence!

Extra information
