Tools for participatory democracy
Decidim is a free and open, digital infrastructure for participatory democracy. Decidim allows to create and configure a web platform to be used as a political network for democratic participation. The platform is freely available for organisations and institutions seeking to initiate participatory processes such as deliberation, decision-making, collaboration, direct democracy and co-design.
In order for the project to reach a new stage of technical maturity, the project will overhaul the user experience through a complete redesign of its interface. It is necessary to review, order and, if necessary, remove features. This project is focused on doing the less visible, but necessary work, to make the code clean and sustainable in the long term.
Run by Decidim Free Software Association
