To democratize common issues, step by step
Prozesse sind ein Raum, der das Erstellen, Aktivieren/Deaktivieren und Verwalten verschiedener partizipatorischer Prozesse ermöglicht. Diese unterscheiden sich von anderen Räumen, indem sie in verschiedenen Phasen strukturiert werden, in denen alle Komponenten integriert werden können. Beispiele für partizipatorische Prozesse sind: ein Wahlprozess für Mitglieder eines Ausschusses, partizipative Budgetierung, ein strategischer Planungsprozess. das gemeinsame Schreiben einer Regulierung oder Norm, die Gestaltung eines städtischen Raumes oder die Erstellung eines öffentlichen Politikplans.
The power of collective self-organization
Makes it possible to set up decision-making bodies or groups (councils, working groups, commissions, etc.) that meet regularly, detailing their composition, listing and geolocating their meetings. It allows participation in them, for example, attending in person or online, adding issues to the agenda, or commenting on the proposals and decisions taken by that body.
The right to decide with all democratic guarantees
Makes it possible to coordinate referendums, trigger discussions and debates, get voting results published and connect to a secure e-voting system.
Setting everyone's agenda, within everyone's reach
Participants can create collaborative initiatives, define their path and goals, gather endorsements, discuss, debate and disseminate initiatives, set meeting points where signatures can be collected from attendees or debates open to other members of the organisation.
