Work Package 7 - Dramatising Citizen Engagement
WP7 explores how emotions connecting climate change and inequality surface and are dramaturgically channelled in live settings representing the state of the art in citizen engagement. Thereby we adopt a cultural lens on politics and combine the disciplines of sociology, political science, theatre studies, religious studies, and anthropology to provide a 'total analysis of citizen engagement events. A special focus lies in the development of public engagement tools and guidelines that can increase democratic participation by using the power of political emotions as a resource for enhanced democracy.
