Description

Strengthening citizen participation involves creating and improving mechanisms that enable individuals and communities to actively engage in decision-making processes affecting their lives. This strategy addresses issues of exclusion, apathy, and lack of transparency by promoting accessible forums, participatory budgeting, and inclusive consultations. Its practical intent is to ensure diverse voices are heard, foster accountability, and enhance the legitimacy and effectiveness of policies, thereby remedying democratic deficits and building more responsive governance systems.
