Federal Board Member | Germany

As society becomes more diverse, it is essential to have a democratic toolbox that integrates the needs and views of the many and allows people to take the initiative and make decisions for the common good. As a democracy activist, this is what Sarah Händel campaigns for. For more than a decade, Sarah has worked with Mehr Demokratie to open the political landscape for citizen participation and direct democracy. Also sitting on their federal Board and as leader of the organisation’s Baden-Württemberg branch, she fights for democratic innovation all the way up to the European Level and works closely with the local communities. Anyone who want to start a citizen initiative for a popular vote can get consultations for free.
