The management team of the project "Public Policies Made by Citizens" - www.Public-Policies.eu: Andrea (Italy), Joanna (Greece), Guillaume (France), and Radu (Romania)

During May 17-23, the international workshop “Public Policies Made by Citizens” is taking place in Moeciu, Romania. We are together 21 young people from four countries – Romania, Italy, Greece and France – who are coordinating the five platforms of participative democracy available at this moment:

• www.Public-Policies.eu for Europe
• www.PoliticiPublice.ro for Romania
• www.Politiche-Pubbliche.it for Italy
• www.PolitiquesPubliques.fr for France
• www.Public-Policies.gr for Greece
  

Besides testing the steps of “SMART Method of Public Policy” and identifying opportunities to generate greater leverage to the participation attempts of every day citizens, we are also publishing problems of European, national and local public concern, as well as solutions.

This workshop is the first major attempt to develop “SMART Method of Public Policy” to a new level, that would generate the first success stories of participation. A success story happens when a problem of public concern that is published on one of our citizen engagement platforms is solved by a public institution, using the five steps of SMART Method.

Today we created a new video to promote the European platform www.Public-Policies.eu:

And of course, we have some photos from the first three days:
