About

A partnership between the non-partisan Center for the Future of Arizona and the Edson Entrepreneurship + Innovation Institute, DemocraSeed aimed to increase interest in civic engagement, creative problem solving and entrepreneurship in high school students on city and tribal youth councils. 

The program taught students how to use design thinking and an entrepreneurial mindset to develop innovative solutions to civic challenges in their communities. Equipped with these tools and knowledge, students were empowered to create and pilot financially sustainable peer-to-peer civic engagement interventions.
