Next week, Brazil's elections will be a global turning point for the fate of democracy. For those us working on transparency, participation and accountability around the world, Brazil's nation-wide institutions for citizen voice really stand out - for their breadth, depth, long history & resilience - in spite of the previous government's efforts to dismantle them. Check out this new, trilingual analysis of efforts to rebuild those participatory institutions during the current Lula administration, from @AdrianGurzaLava ...
