We are pleased to announce the launch of our fully redesigned open-source, open-edit website Participedia.net <http://participedia.net/>. Participedia is a resource for anyone interested in the new forms of civic engagement and democratic innovation being developed around the world. From academics, to practitioners and engaged citizens, Participedia’s community shares a common goal: to document and understand new forms of governance and community-empowerment in all places and at all scales. On Participedia, anyone can collaboratively document and share cases, methods, and organizations related to public participation. Since 2009, nearly 2000 entries have been published on Participedia.net, collectively written and edited by close to 3000 users, and accessed by hundreds of thousands of people all over the world. The research project has grown into a global network of over fifty co-investigators and collaborators from partner institutions spanning six continents. Visit Participedia.net to discover knowledge and stories of public participation, and share your own!
