And the winners are…. 🥁

Small group, high diversity, deep participation, great signal - Rome's plural event @veracuranetwork Space. Last Thursday, a small group of people gathered in San Lorenzo, Rome (at Veracura Space) as part of Plural Events, a global initiative by @hubs_network_ where ~20 cities worldwide discussed the same topic on the same day: Deliberative Democracy in Practice - Privacy, Coordination, and Collective Action Activists, artists, energy engineers, woodworkers, crypto nomads, and local youth association leaders — from Italy, the US, Brazil, Argentina and Turkey — spent almost 3 hours doing exactly that. We heard from Sterlin (@Logos_network) on the global governance crisis and grassroots organising, discussed @romefutureweek 's sustainability track, brainstormed actions for San Lorenzo, and tested live coordination and privacy-preserving tools: @join_agora, Dembrane and more. Then we voted. The winner: 🍺 Drink for Good - partnering with local bars to reward waste-sorting with a free drink. Simple, social, prototype-ready. We're now working to launch it at Veracura next month. Thanks to global partners Hubs Network, @web3privacy, @RadxChange, Logos and Comms Gardening, and local partners Veracura and Rome Future Week. Outcomes will be shared across the Hubs Network and presented at Rome Future Week in September. Small rooms. Real decisions. That's how it starts.
