About Us

Digital Democracy was created by a group of people who live in the UK. We all found it very difficult to influence decisions made by others that affect our lives, so we formed a social company called Democratise and built this website to try and change things. The main aim of our company is to increase levels of democratic involvement in decision making by the people whose quality of life is affected by the outcome of those decisions.

Digital Democracy boldly claims to be the world's first mass participation, online democratic forum. Digital Democracy will enable your community to identify its top priorities in a democratic way. These priorities will be forwarded to participating MPs and other key decision makers, who will be invited to state on the website what they have done in response.

The objects for which the Company is established are the delivery of specific social objectives;
(I) To empower individuals and groups of people whose viewpoint has been marginalised from a decision making process, where their quality of life is affected by the outcome of the decision,
(II) To facilitate people's democratic involvement in decision making,
(III) To promote democratic reform and individual / group empowerment across and throughout communities, regions, nations and legally recognised organisations,
(IV) To create forums that enable individuals to express and discuss issues, then collectively take decisions,
(V) To encourage power structures / decision makers to align their decisions with the collectively expressed views of those affected by the decision,
(VI) To encourage power structures / decision makers to routinely scope the opinions of those affected by their decisions, and then to ensure that decisions are informed by the views of those affected by the decisions.
