Participatory Democracy | Estateplanning | Vibepedia.Network

Participatory democracy combines elements of direct and representative democracy, allowing citizens to participate individually and directly in political decisions. This approach has been influenced by thinkers like [[jean-jacques-rousseau|Jean-Jacques Rousseau]] and [[john-dewey|John Dewey]], and has been implemented in various forms around the world, including in countries like [[switzerland|Switzerland]] and [[iceland|Iceland]]. Participatory democracy aims to increase citizen engagement and improve the responsiveness of governments to the needs of their citizens.
