Sector Policy participation, Environment and Planning Act and citizens' assemblies

The live conversation your participation platform is missing.

Comment forms collect opinions. A live, anonymous dialogue with many residents shows what they agree on.

Where it applies 3 moments

Where the dialogue fits in municipalities

Participation that goes beyond comment forms and the usual faces at the public consultation evening.

  1. 01

    Environment and Planning Act

    For a vision, programme or plan it must be clear who was involved, what was gathered and what happens with it. The dialogue provides that substantiation.

  2. 02

    Beyond the usual faces

    The consultation evening attracts the people who would come anyway. An online dialogue also reaches residents you would otherwise hear less often.

  3. 03

    Policy and evaluation

    Synthetron is strong at policy level: testing visions, evaluating programmes and deepening citizens' assemblies.

FAQ

Questions from municipalities

Is your question not listed? Ask it in an introductory call.

We already have a participation platform.

Keep it. A platform collects responses over time; the dialogue brings large groups into conversation at one moment.

Will enough residents take part?

Yes. Invitation and timing drive turnout, and we design both together with you.
