Civocracy
With built digital platform, Civocracy enables citizens to fully embrace their new duty. Their theory of change is a virtuous cycle that benefits individuals, institutions and communities. Their platform today allows administrations to launch 5 modules of citizen participation, from top-down to bottom-up, to reach out to their stakeholders and get their insights on local issues. They complete this powerful set of collective intelligence modules with deep analytics.
Democratic principles are baked into their technology, like freedom of expression, pluralism, integrity, right to be informed, representativity, and the ability to participate and debate.
Starting with Empowerment – the vision of Civocracy is to give people the tools to actively engage in their local environment. This leads to them feeling a sense of Ownership, and with the Civocracy platform, they begin to organize and engage in structural ways to make larger-scale changes.
This leads to a sense of Agency and a feeling of Trust since the changes have a concrete impact on the institutions we collaborate with.
Once individuals start trusting other stakeholders, they want to engage again and again.
Civocracy's Story
Governments today are the main source of revenue of Civocracy, but they are also a means to an end. Their mission goes beyond building a participative toolbox for public decision-makers: they are deliberately building, cities by cities, a global civic network, 100% people-centric.
Imagine a platform that is as engaging as Facebook or Twitter that you want to open every day to connect with your community, stay informed on issues you really care about, and allows you to give your voice and share with your neighbors, your city, your governments, and see the concrete impact.
Imagine a platform that focuses its R&D and effort to develop your civic skills and restore a sense of trust instead of addiction and manipulation.
