Our 3rd Newsletter is officially out! 📰✨
We are thrilled to share Issue 3 of the EU-CIEMBLY Newsletter, published on May 4th, 2026! This issue takes a deep dive into the Colchester Pilot: Redefining the Housing Dialogue.
Here is a sneak peek at what is inside:
The Colchester Assembly: We gathered 50 participants, bringing together University of Essex students and local Colchester residents to navigate the complexities of housing.
A Living Laboratory: The pilot moved our project from an analytical framework into practical application, designing mechanisms for intersectional equality and dismantling structural barriers.
Co-Design Process: The assembly was shaped collaboratively through workshops with local community organisers and student representatives, ensuring the process was designed with the participants.
Intersectional Inclusion: The assembly embraced lived experience as a vital form of expertise, engaging deeply with how gender, ethnicity, and age shape our social realities.
Looking Ahead: We are taking the lessons learned from this local pilot to refine and scale our framework for the upcoming National Citizens' Assembly in Cyprus!
