Introduction To Delib
- 1. An introduction to Delib and the democratising power of the internet
- 2. What’s going on right now? The internet has matured into a social space with sites acting as social facilitators, empowering people in the process. This has led to a shift of power from the organisation to the individual. Chris Lopez - Flickr
- 3. People want to participate This newly empowered citizen likes to participate. They like to create and share - typified by people’s use of YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. Welcome to the “p-generation”. Ritterbin - Flickr
- 4. So organisations need to be more participative too... People are eager to connect with you – to share ideas of your service and products. Eager to help you improve (either constructively or otherwise). People want to be involved, and if you ignore them then...
- 5. And participative organisations are better organisations What’s exciting is that if organisations get participation right, great things happen: policy participation in government means better, more effective governance. Idea-sharing and collaboration means greater stakeholder involvement.
