Citizen panel for more climate protection Uster 2021

In a cooperation with the Zentrum für Demokratie Aarau (ZDA), I conducted the quota-based sampling (stratification) of the final twenty participants of the “citizens’ panel for more climate protection” (More info in German: Bürgerpanel für mehr Klimaschutz Uster) among the volunteers who answered positively to a randomized call for participation sent out before to 2000 inhabitants of the Swiss municipality of Uster.

To ensure a fair and transparent process, a public session was held to conduct the selection with an open-source software developed by the UK non-profit Sortition Foundation.
