Thanks Matthias for the links! I agree that there are hundreds. I once tried to google and found many... Here is another series of US-based online deliberation practices. Prof. Vincent Price and Joseph Cappella have worked on this theme for almost a decade. Their first project, Electronic Dialogue 2000, was conducted in 2000. The link below is the website for their second project, Health Care Dialogue. I believe that there is a third project going on right now. http://healthcaredialogue.org/public/index.asp

Dear Egle, there are hundreds...

You may find what you're searching for on sites such as these ones: http://www.e-participation.net/ http://www.epractice.eu/ http://www.pep-net.eu/ http://www.demo-net.org/

Or at our own website: http://www.zebralog.de/en/

In my own research on online deliberation I have looked into detail at this case: http://dialogues.listeningtothecity.org/

Good luck,

Matthias
