In the past decade, and especially during the COVID pandemic, online engagement has become an essential element of public participation and democracy. In response, a range of comprehensive new digital participation platforms have emerged. However, with a wealth of options comes confusion–and widely varying quality. To navigate these options, advocates and policymakers need practical and impartial guidance for selecting and using platforms.
The Digital Participation Resource Center, which includes the guide to digital participation platforms and platform ratings, was developed by People Powered with the support of the National Endowment for Democracy and the nonpartisan International Republican Institute in order to address these challenges. An international committee of civic tech experts reviewed and rated the platforms. In this event, you’ll learn about the key findings of the guide and ratings, how to use them, and what to do next.
When: Tuesday, February 1, 11 a.m.-12 p.m. ET (New York time)
Language: English, with simultaneous interpretation in Spanish, Portuguese, and French
