The Field Building Program continuously documents its activities to make learning accessible to all members of the Democracy R&D Network and the wider deliberative democracy community. Each meeting, workshop, and Learning Call is carefully summarized and, when relevant or required, recorded and shared publicly.
These resources capture key insights, practical tools, and examples from field-building experiences around the world — from strategies for increasing awareness and funding, to lessons on strengthening implementation capacity. They serve as an evolving record of what the network is learning together, while helping new members and allies build upon previous work.

All new resources will also be added to the Library section of this website and to the Democracy R&D YouTube Channel, ensuring that the collective learning from the Field Building Program remains open and accessible to everyone.
