​June 17th - Brett Hennig

​SORTITION FOUNDATION - THE END OF POLITICIANS

​You can also sign up for the entire Speaker Series here

​Brett Hennig co-founded and is a director of the Sortition Foundation, which campaigns to institute the use of stratified, random selection (also called sortition) in government.

​After spending several disheartening years in civil society organisations and politics, Hennig began investigating and researching network forms of democracy. The resulting book, The End of Politicians: Time for a Real Democracy, has been called "a book for visionaries" by New Internationalist contributing editor James Kelsey-Fry and was described as "a powerful critique and provocative alternative" by the late Professor Erik Olin Wright.

​Hennig has given many talks promoting sortition, watch his TEDx video here.
