"Citizen Interaction means any course of collective or joint action addressed to the states which tries- successfully or not-, to exert an influence over the decisions of the public agenda."
Jorge Balbis-2005
Benefits of the Interaction
Leaders Event "Do your neighbourhood"
Participation and consult are ways to foresee certain civic demands before they are dealt with in a quick way, usually with little planning, and probably implying an economical and emotional cost for a country and/ or a determined group.
Participation helps to achieve a greater efficiency in the public intervention because it leads to answers and proposals accurately addressed that optimize resources and, at the same time, improve the services with those same resources.
Participation deepens democracy and favors social articulation
Participation introduces the perspectives of the different social actors: base sectors, active minorities, economic agents and institutions dealing with planning, and public / private/ civic intervention.
Citizen Interaction, the best strategy to improve the quality of life.
