The Democracy & Culture Foundation stands at the nexus of culture and democracy. Its strategy (designed by McKinsey) is based on the impact chain THINK-TALK-DO. Its work runs along two main axes. The one axis concerns running a cluster of three conferences: (a) The Athens Democracy Forum (in association with the New York Times) a global event that debates current and emerging issues currently in its 11th year, (b) The Art for Tomorrow which examines how art changes our subjective view of the environment and thus the environment itself and, (c) Teens ADF, a new conference that started last year as a successful pilot, that aims to give adolescents a voice and to help bridge the intergenerational gap. The second axis concerns running a series of projects under four thematic pillars: technology, climate, migration, and business. The cluster of conferences serves as a space for the incubation of ideas that are then translated into projects aiming to produce specific policy recommendations that contribute to the evolution of democracy. These recommendations are stress-tested by using tools of deliberative democracy, presented and debated at ADF and, then through partners promoted for implementation. Projects include “Re-Imaging the Building Blocks of Democracy”, the Climate Change Hub, The Digital Tool Kit, the ORBIS advanced AI tool for deliberative democracy (under an E.U. Horizon grant), the Democratic Odyssey for an E.U. transnational citizens’ assembly.
