Redesigning Democracy is a series of conferences that aims to start an original conversation that pushes normative discourses on African politics towards alternative narratives that incorporate creative dissidence, popular culture, histories and emergent forms of everyday innovative social change. The conference adopts an expansive view of (electoral) politics in hopes of shifting the parochial binary discourses of power often articulated around masses vs elites by critically centring otherwise marginal voices and actors.
