“Good government is no substitute for self-government.”
–M.K. Gandhi

This forum will explore richer, more expansive possibilities for citizen self-governance beyond experiments in representative, propertied democracies.  Drawing upon Mahatma Gandhi and others, the forum will focus on discussing:  What is meant by self-governance on behalf of individuals and groups?  And, what conditions can be created to instantiate a more self-governing society for today and for the emerging civilization of the future?

The event will be in person and live webcast: https://www.youtube.com/user/IWCinSantaBarbara
