The future is not something we predict. It’s something we co-create! 🖖
I just published a personal write-up sharing reflections from an event we co-organized in Paris with friends from @radxchange.bsky.social.

Launching 𝗩𝗢𝗫𝗜𝗧 𝗘𝗨: a new European initiative to develop deliberative tools that help communities build consensus across Europe and beyond. I’m proud that our little startup
@agoracitizen.network stands alongside institutional teams!
Thanks patcon :)
This is an ongoing challenge. And we're building in the open. So we'd love your input:
→ Does "Approved / Rejected" feel clearer than "Common Ground"?
→ Is there a better framing?
→ What would make this page more actionable?
Let us know 👇
"Approved" and "Rejected" are our latest attempt to make that distinction clear at a glance. This is one of many iterations driven by community feedback.
Agora isn't just used by its community — it's shaped by it.
(One of you even spotted the redesign before we announced it 👀)
Thanks to #RedDwarf, Agora can surface both — what everyone agrees with AND what they disagree with.
But presenting agreement and disagreement side-by-side in a way that's intuitive (not confusing or overly technical) has been a real design challenge.
In Pol.is, reports surface group-informed consensus — but only on agreement.
There isn’t an equally visible way to see what participants broadly disagree with.
We think that matters.
We just updated one of Agora's core pages — the Analysis tab.
"Common Ground" is out. "Approved" and "Rejected" are in.
Here's why 👇
It made our day to hear the following quote: "Agora made the event feel lively and interactive, while the live analytics allowed trends to emerge clearly. It really brought the conversation to life and fostered a collaborative and inclusive atmosphere."
Long overdue but we're excited to share this case study from a pilot with UNESCO in October!

What better way to spend the last day of 2025 than planning a major revamp of @agoracitizen.network with @nicobao.dev and @georgecharnley.bsky.social. 🔥
What if technologies didn't divide us but helped us understand each other better?
This Thursday at 4pm CET, our peacebuilder friends at
ConnexUs and Search For Common Ground are hosting a webinar on deliberative tech - @agoracitizen.network will be in action!
Join us: cnxus.org/event/connex...
As a d/acc builder, it was so rewarding and humbling to share our journey building @agoracitizen.network at d/acc day, DevConnect! 🙏
Can we agree anymore?
Excited to be a speaker at d/acc Day, DevConnect on Nov 19 and share some learnings about Finding Common Ground at Scale!

We’re excited to launch this collective sense-making project with Devconnect to gather your perspectives on key themes at next week’s event - from Ethereum’s direction, its role in LATAM, to d/acc, future cities, and more.
👉 Join the dialogues: zkorum.github.io/agora-devcon...
We will be using @agoracitizen.network (simple, open-source deliberation tool for large-scale, data-driven dialogue) at @devcon.org this year. If you have a ticket - it would be great to give it a try proving your ticket via (the new) Zupass integration there

LIVE🔴#UNESCO is using Agora today as part of the Global Media and Information Literacy Week to engage its members in shaping its Action Plan through 2030!
Just 30 minutes in - and already 250+ votes cast by participants joining on-site and online.
When social frustration meets collective intelligence: During France’s #BloquonsTout strike, facilitation expert @apreslabiere.fr tested how citizens can turn anger into constructive dialogue with @agoracitizen.network.
Meet the #NGISargassoInnovator @agoracitizen.network!
Designed for civic dialogues, #Agora is a platform where citizens exchange & debate ideas, partnered by ZKorum 🇫🇷 & IoTeedom 🇺🇸

🚨La grève #bloquonstout commence !🚨
Avec @apreslabiere.fr, on lance une consultation pour transformer la frustration en propositions concrètes et consensuelles.
Déjà plus de 100 participants ont rejoint la conversation !
Venez partager votre voix : agoracitizen.network/feed/convers...
4/6 On lance sur la plateforme @agoracitizen.network une consultation citoyenne sur le thème "#BloquonsTout : on exige quoi ENSEMBLE ?". Agora c'est un outil inspiré de Pol.is et créé par @nicobao.dev et @yutingjiang.com
1) La dérive autoritaire (c'est la voix qui, si on ne change rien, a le plus de chance d'advenir)
2) Un chaos décentralisé
Ou alors on parviens à renouveler nos pratiques démocratiques, notamment en utilisant et popularisant l'utilisation d'outil tel @agoracitizen.network ou @tournesol.app
1/6 Le Gouvernement est tombé. De nombreux Français vont exprimer leur colère le 10 septembre #BloquonsTout, et c'est légitime. Face à un pouvoir politique sidéré et à un monde qui s'embrase plus vite que le climat, l'absence de colère serait la seule chose étonnante. Mais après ? 👇
We're joining forces with ConnexUs, a global network of peacebuilders and changemakers! Huge thanks to the team at Search For Common Ground for making this happen!
Agora just saw its first conversation in Czech!
Děkujeme a vítejte! 🙌
It’s been a while since we shared updates… and we’ve been cooking! 🍳
Agora just got a whole lot more powerful (and usable). Our goal? To make constructive, large-scale dialogue not only possible but delightful.

🧵Thread on feedback from the MUN Organizer 👇 [1/X]
Agora was used at a student MUN (model united nations) conference today!
Looking forward to rolling out more use cases and collaborations!
