Understand the basics

A participatory process is a sequence of participatory activities with the aim of defining and making a decision on a specific topic. For example, you could have a participatory process like this:

  1. First filling out a survey for collect participants opinion;

  2. Then opening proposals;

  3. Discussing them in face-to-face or virtual meetings;

  4. Finally prioritizing them before implementation.

You want to create a participatory process? Check the process creation article.

Beispiele für partizipatorische Prozesse sind: ein Prozess der Wahl der Mitglieder des Ausschusses (bei dem die Kandidaten zuerst vorgestellt werden, dann debattiert und schließlich wird eine Kandidatur gewählt), partizipative Budgets (wo Vorschläge gemacht werden Wirtschaftlich bewertet, und mit dem zur Verfügung stehenden Geld abstimmt), einem strategischen Planungsprozess, die kollaborative Ausarbeitung einer Verordnung oder Norm, die Gestaltung eines städtischen Raums oder die Erstellung eines öffentlichen Politikplans.

Ein wirklich wichtiges Konzept für die gute Nutzung von Decidim ist es, die Beziehung zwischen Phasen und Komponenten in einem partizipatorischen Prozess in Decidim zu verstehen:

What this diagram is showing is that for a participatory process you can configure different phases, and enable and configure the components for each phase as you need it for your process.

Inside of every one of these Phases, you can enable the Components you need.

In this documentation section, you can find how to configure and manage all of those items:
