Jelena Gregorius is Senior Government Success Manager at Go Vocal (formerly Citizen Lab), an international election observer and a former program manager with the European Commission. In this Briefing she takes you through the process of developing a strong and sustainable culture of engagement in government, particularly at the local level. Based on training materials from Go Vocal and years of experience working personally with local governments internationally, she covers not only the why, but most importantly the how – exploring organisational processes, team building, skills, resources and strategies. Along the way, you’ll develop your own ready-to-go ‘Participation Success Plan’ so you can not only undertake citizen participation initiatives, but do so effectively and consistently.
