		<description><![CDATA[The 24-page article, Deliberators, not Future Citizens: Children in Democracy (2017), was written by Kei Nishiyama, and published in the Journal of Public Deliberation: Vol. 13: Iss. 1. The article advocates for children to be authentically included in deliberative democracy, as opposed to the position most children have, of little to no agency in democratic activities. Read an excerpt of the article below and find the PDF available for download on the Journal of Public Deliberation site here. From the introduction&#8230; Children are &#8220;neither seen [&#8230;] <a href="http://ncdd.org/rc/item/11997">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

The article provides evidence&#160;for the practice of holding enclaves for marginalized groups within dialogue and deliberation processes, as part of a larger conversation.

In the article, Karpowitz and Raphael, build off of previous research they performed regarding inclusivity within democratic deliberation.

		<description><![CDATA[The 14-page article, When is Deliberation Democratic?, was written by David Moscrop and Mark Warren, and&#160;published in the&#160;Journal of Public Deliberation: Vol. 12: Iss. 2. In the article, the authors theorize on how deliberative democracy operates in relation to equality and equity. They lift up two features that are of particular importance to pre-deliberative democracy: popular participation and agenda-setting, that must be paid attention to by theorist and practitioners. Deliberative democratic processes shape and are shaped by these two features, popular participation- how people show [&#8230;] <a href="http://ncdd.org/rc/item/11549">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

Lessons from High-Achieving Communities (2016), was written by David Mathews and supported by the Cousins Research Group of the Kettering Foundation. The report discusses how communities become stronger and more resilient through more &#8220;leaderfulness&#8221; of its community members, as opposed to having just a few of active leaders. What Mathews means by &#8220;leaderfulness&#8221;, is that people are engaged within a community and show leaderfulness by taking initiative to participate.
