We need to rethink the way we perceive politics and politicians. Politics is a privilege and shared common responsibility that cannot be fully delegated to lawmakers. Politicians are human being with high and lows. Hence, they can fail. We as individuum and as society need to act as corrective. Political activism is a great way to get involved into the political debate but yet not enough to actively shape politics. We need a better connection between civil society movements, political activism and (party) politics to achieve a more efficient and sustainable policy decision making process.
