Ignite Talk

Borrow a democracy ambassador was a part of an initiative that the City of Landskrona Public Libraries undertook before the 2022 election in Sweden.

We aimed to strengthen the participation in the democratic system by providing interested organizations and individuals the option of borrowing a democracy ambassador.

We are now moving forward after the election to strengthen the understanding of, and participation in, democratic society.

Let us tell you about our work to underscore public libraries important role as facilitators for questions about democracy.
