Sustainable development is driven by local governments that are responsive to the needs of their citizens and willing to involve them in their decision-making processes. To make that work, citizens need to feel empowered to make their voices heard and cooperate effectively with the authorities.

This course is based on four pillars: participation, inclusion, social accountability and innovation. It discusses concrete examples of innovative strategies to promote transparent, participatory, inclusive and accountable governance. We will examine different communication tools and consider the importance of managing the expectations of citizens, community organisations and other stakeholders. Special attention is given to ensuring all voices are heard, including women, youth and people with disabilities. Furthermore, we will explore how information technologies can ensure greater accountability and transparency within government and facilitate meaningful participation.
