Impact

• the continuous experimentation• the adoption of ready made tools, and the search

for non proprietary tools, not forcing stakeholders to register on facebook, google etc.

• the federation of content with third party platforms, where people already discuss

• the identification and high quality role of intermediaries/multipliers to animate and report discussions

Lessons learnt: Maintain

Lessons learnt: evolution

• better connect stakeholders between themselves;

• move from event-centred to policy-centred; from experimentation to full deployment where online engagement is the norm rather than the exception;

• give more prominence and visibility to the input of stakeholders;

• need to close the circle of participation by fully describing the impact it has had.
