Solutions
Allowing citizens to participate in civic decision making processes fundamentally improves the functioning of cities and towns on many levels. It helps to build mutual relationships between the Town Hall, citizens, local companies and organisations. It is a core condition in delivering public projects that truly serve the needs of the local community. Involve citizens in your city too. Our software platform D21 is intuitive and will provide technical support for the whole process. If you’re not sure about something, we will help and pass on our know-how. Our goal is to effectively involve citizens in public life. Connect them on a local level so that they co-create the city. To do this, we use modern technology and the Janeček multiple vote method (D21), which makes the platform entirely unique.

”Since 2014, I have been helping to set up various participatory processes in the Czech Republic and abroad. I am in daily contact with communities, companies and other organizations. I participated as a project manager and consultant in the election game President 21, and also other projects and research activities of the Institute. I graduated in Political Science with a specialization in democratization and human rights at the Faculty of Social Sciences, Masaryk University in Brno, and spent part of my studies at the University of Catania.”
