Join the Launch of the 2024 Digital Participation Tool Ratings

/

In the global currents of technological advancement and democratic shifts, the field of digital participation is constantly evolving and growing, making it difficult for governments and organizations to select the right tool for their context.

What are the best tools and platforms to enhance your digital participation program today? What criteria should governments and organizations use when selecting a digital participation tool, and how can developers make platforms more accessible, inclusive and secure?

Here to help democracy practitioners decide, People Powered will launch its 2024 ratings of digital participation tools on March 14.

A global committee composed of six independent experts in participation technology has carefully evaluated the top platforms across six criteria, with input from hundreds of users and the platform developers. The 2024 edition is now updated for the third year, with new platforms, methodological improvements and a revamped Airtable presentation. Learn how we made these changes and how to use the ratings in planning your digital participation program.

Share any questions you have via the registration form by March 7, and we’ll incorporate them into the planning of the webinar.

  1. Government officials, policymakers and staff who want to run or improve digital participation programs with better tools.

  2. Civil society organizations and nongovernmental organizations staff who want to promote, start or expand public participation in their communities through digital platforms.
