The CONSUL DEMOCRACY Foundation, in collaboration with the Landeshauptstadt München, hosts ConsulCon 2026 in Munich from 15 to 17 September, after the 2025 edition in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The conference dives into digital democracy, open source technology and democratic empowerment, and connects an ever-developing community, inviting new members to exchange views and knowledge.

Expect demo runs, workshops on devising participation processes and empowering citizens in cities and regions in Europe, Latin America and Africa, sessions on open source technology and digital public goods, and keynotes about the democratic potential of it all. The programme runs in four tracks: practical deep dive, improving participation, open source and open gov, and an afternoon with AI, alongside a software developer special on contributing to the CONSUL codebase. Keynotes come from Roman Huber (Mehr Demokratie), Sophie Bloemen (Commons Network) and Joe Mathews (Democracy Local). Day one is at Flux Munich; days two and three are hosted by the city of Munich at Agnes-Pockels-Bogen 33. Tickets are donation-based.
