Wed Feb 12 12:55:26 GMT 2014





Participation Now is a new Open University/OpenLearn web platform built for those interested in exploring and critically reflecting on emerging developments in the field of public participation and public engagement.

http://www.open.edu/openlearn/society/politics-policy-people/participation-now

Participation Now offers access to:

- A unique, searchable and expanding collection of over 100 very diverse examples of participatory public engagement sourced from social movements, NGOs, art, government, science and many other domains

- A lively, practical and scholarly debate about the possibilities and difficulties of participatory public engagement that Participation Now is hosting with openDemocracy.net

If you are a researcher or practitioner working in this area Participation Now is looking for short (250-750 word) contributions that draw on your own research and/or experiences related to public participation and public engagement. For more details, see the call for contributions:
