We asked our respondents questions about democracy in Poland and around the world, as well as their vision for the creation of a portal to strengthen public consultation and citizen legislative initiatives

Right to petition
Every adult has the constitutional right to submit a petition, also to the Sejm and the Senate. This form is much more accessible than the citizens’ legislative initiative. It is a so-called soft instrument, because it does not lead directly to decisions with legal effect.

What is UX Research?

Effective online voting
Remote voting can take place from a home computer connected to the Internet. Aragon Vocdoni is a blockchain-based platform that enables secret and efficient voting. Verification of eligibility to cast a vote can be done through verification of email address, phone number or authentication transfer.

Interesting civic projects
Reconciling different positions may require a mixed representative-direct system. There are various foundations that support the development of civil society, such as the Center for Civic Education (creators of the Voting Lighthouse) and the Foundation for Poland. Other interesting but now defunct projects are also mentioned.

Ethical citizen
The Scottish Enlightenment was a watershed period because it was then that civil society was framed in a more modern form. Moral values in democracy and politics are crucial, and parliamentary democracy leads to many distortions. The alternative is to use direct democracy.

Goodness, truth, beauty
Goodness, beauty, and truth are three values that we take as important reference points for our foundation. In this article, we address our understanding of them as well as the historical significance of these transcendentals.

Freedom
Freedom has both a negative element, which is the absence of various forms of oppression, and a positive aspect, which is the freedom to make various choices. Unreflective service to the idea set by the authorities leads to distortion of the system.

We are officially a Foundation!
A few days ago we were officially registered as a foundation. This is a great moment for us, which we are very happy about, and which motivates us to continue our work.
