What is the final online deliberation event?
The final online deliberation event is a kind of citizen assembly that will take place in each country on the platform at the end of the debate period for that country. During this online event, 30-40 citizens will work together with professional facilitators to produce concrete policy proposals for the European Central Bank. If you are a citizen of France, Italy, Spain, Germany or the Netherlands, you can sign up for the event in your country and get the chance to be selected to participate.
The results of the event will be compiled with those of the other countries and will be presented to the European Central Bank in Frankfurt ahead of its strategy review in September 2021.
