Democracy

Principles

Affirmative terms and a differently deliberative lens

Practices to implement

Use affirmative terms such as “Global South Solution,” “Global South Innovation” and “Global South Method” instead of negative ones that express an absence, a problem, such as “adaptation,” or “simplification.”

View different practices and origins as “differently” deliberative, not better or worse. It’s not a knowledge competition or standardization process. Consider differences in political systems and histories as qualitative and not quantitative, not as “more” or “less” something.
