How do citizens envision democratic participation for sustainable futures? A reflection on co-created innovations
As humanity fails to remain within the Earth's critical biophysical limits, a growing global consensus is emerging on the urgent need for a socio-ecological transformation towards a sustainable future. Citizens' democratic participation in shaping a sustainable future is widely recognised as essential; however, empirical studies exploring the role of democratic participation practices in sustainability transitions, and how citizens themselves env…
What roles can democracy labs play in co-creating democratic innovations for sustainability
This perspective essay proposes Democracy Labs as new processes for developing democratic innovations that help tackle complex socio-ecological challenges within an increasingly unequal and polarised society, against the backdrop of democratic backsliding. Next to the current socio-ecological crisis, rapid technological innovations present both opportunities and challenges for democracy and call for democratic innovations. These innovations (e.g.…

Tackling the challenge of interdisciplinary energy research
Visualising Household Energy Use in the Interest of Developing Sustainable Energy Systems
In times of climate change political goals concern a reduction in total energy consumption and to use energy more efficiently. To achieve this, users need to transform their behaviour and start reflecting on their energy use. This paper discusses three different methods for visualising energy use, namely information tools, keeping time-diaries and using the ‘Power-Aware Cord’. Each method has its pros and cons, but combining different methods cou…
