We offer a set of social innovations by which it's possible to facilitate "all the people" to come together as "We the People" and achieve breakthrough progress on the most urgent impossible-seeming issues.
At all levels of our society we are facing Monster Problems ... i.e. BIG impossible-seeming issues that must be solved. These Monsters are especially occurring at the national (e.g partisan gridlock) and global levels (e.g. climate crisis).
At the Center for Wise Democracy we offer a breakthrough strategy for how "we" (a few of us) can facilitate "all the people" to face these Monsters; reach wise unity through shifts and breakthroughs; and provide responsible leadership to governments, the economy and the culture. This strategy relies on a set of social innovations by which a legitimate, inclusive "We the People" can come into being, address the Monster Issues, reach shared perspectives, and turn our "constitutional republic" into a "wise democracy." This safe inclusive voluntary process provides a new set of solution-possibilities for all the Monster Problems.

And elected leaders often represent moneyed interests more than their constituents. How might we (just a few of us) facilitate all the people to come together as a wise and responsible "We the People"? ... where We reach shared conclusions and provide responsible leadership to elected leaders? Below is a short video describing how this might happen within a reality TV Show. (3.5 min video):
Examples from Austria
See the web site sponsored by the Vorarlberg government about their use of the Wisdom Council Process--Seven short videos IN ENGLISH! (https://www.buergerrat.net/english-version/) Below is one example, a short video illustrating how the state government of Voralberg in Austria used the Wisdom Council Process to help citizens address and solve a contentious issue ... the influx of refugees.
To understand this new-paradigm approach most people find it valuable to experience it by taking a seminar. See the seminars on "Dynamic Facilitation."
Check out "Our Story" of how these social innovations and this whole-system strategy came about.
