Democs (deliberative meeting of citizens) is part card game, part policy-making tool that enables small groups of people to engage with complex public policy issues.
It helps people find out about a topic, express their views, seek common ground with the other participants, and state their preferred policy position from a given choice of four. They can also add their own policy positions.
Democs:
- enables players to identify and absorb the basic information they need to discuss an issue that may be complex and that they may not have discussed before
- may simply allow the group to explore an issue, or enable people to seek common ground on what policies should be adopted on the issue.
- is ideally used by groups of six, but anything between five and nine will work
- may be facilitated by an outsider or the group can be self-facilitating
