Citizen participation begins and ends with the local community
With Hoplr in your city or municipality, you increase the neighbourhood's engagement. Social cohesion, offline contact and engagement are the basic requirements for meaningful and inclusive citizen participation. It's all about dialogue, working together and even getting your hands dirty.
Go from communication to participation. A modern city or town listens and knows the talk of the town. This way, policy making can be tailored to the needs of citizens.
Participation through Hoplr shifts the focus from the individual to the local community. This way, we can involve the silent majority. After all, an idea or initiative only really has meaning when the entire community can get behind it.
One way city councils try to bridge the gap between them and citizens, is through Hoplr, a social network site for neighbourhoods.Read more about Boechout
