​🏋️‍♀️ DEMOCRACY FITNESS

​What if democracy was more than just a concept—what if it was something we could train?

​In a world where collaboration and co-creation are more important than ever, democracy isn’t just a system—it’s a skill. Democracy Fitness is a playful, powerful training concept that reimagines democracy as a set of muscles we need to train—with intention, curiosity, and a bit of sweat.

​In this energizing edition, we’re joined by the always-inspiring Jing Foon Yu for a highly interactive workout focused on two essential democratic muscles.

​This session is hosted by Future Now, a community sponsored by International Association of Facilitators (IAF).

​WHAT TO EXPECT?

​Whether you’re guiding a tough team discussion, navigating a room full of strong opinions, or simply trying to stay open to difference—democratic fitness matters. And like any good workout, this one is:

​🧠 Thought-provoking – Challenge how you relate to curiosity and conflict
💬 Interactive – Train in real-time with fellow facilitators
🔥 Energizing – Leave with new perspectives (and maybe a few sore muscles of the mind)

​Come ready to move (your mindset), connect, and leave with fresh insights to strengthen both your facilitation practice and your democratic spirit.
