Aside from a few system upgrades, our democracy looks pretty similar to how it did in the 1800s. Thankfully, digital and social technologists are hard at work updating the processes and structures of democracy, but as the very nature of democracy suggests they’re only valuable when used by those in self-governance.

Join Spark Live guest speaker, Nathaniel Calhoun, as he introduces a few of the most promising new tools in governance and democracy-strengthening while offering guidance about how you can put them to use in your company, your community or even your family.
