As trust in government declines, governments, civil society groups and other stakeholders are increasingly seeking to engage people in decision-making, from planning policy to budgeting. Thus, digital participation platforms are becoming popular and a growing variety are available. How do you choose which one to use?
To help guide users in making this choice, People Powered will launch its 2023 ratings of digital participation platforms (DPP) on February 23.
The speakers will offer insights into:
The data-protection strategies platform developers adopt to ensure transparency and ethical operation.
How platforms set prices for different types of organizations and needs.
How and why more than 400 users from more than 50 countries selected their platforms.
Share your questions via the registration form by February 14, and we’ll incorporate them into the planning of the webinar.
You’ll want to participate if you’re a:
Policymaker, government reformer or from a civil society organization interested in engaging people online.
Donor who wants to support effective and equitable online participation.
Civic tech and digital participation platform developer or expert who wants to learn more about best practices in the field.
When and how you can participate:
Thursday, February 23, 11 a.m.-12 p.m. ET (check your time zone).
Via Zoom, in English. We will provide simultaneous interpretation in French, Spanish, Portuguese or another language if requested in advance by February 14. Please share your language preference when you register.
