Technology has infiltrated every aspect of our lives, changing how we work, how we learn and how we shop. It’s inevitable that our devices begin to reflect our civic aspirations – our desires to connect with others and to contribute to the world around us.
The Internet and related tools already play critical roles, in areas such as data mapping and visualizations, crowdsourcing and more. Here’s how:
1) They lower transaction costs for group formation and action. While we have always come together to engage in community change through “weak ties,” the potential of the Internet is that we will be able to do this much more effectively.
2) They shift time. Group members don’t have to be in the same room at the same time to “meet.” They can coordinate activities over days and months, and members can chime in at their convenience, whether it’s 2 p.m. or 3 a.m.
3) They facilitate easy communication.Spreading the word now only takes one click and maybe one tweet. That’s all anyone needs to do these days to share something with a social network.
Given these benefits, what role should technology play in fostering engagement? How can technology help citizens become more involved with one another and more active in their communities?
Summit participants explored this very question in one of the first sessions.
Technology for Engagement, they concluded, should create and support opportunities and capacities for people to transact with others for the common good.
Engagement technology should: • connect people • build relationships • increase participation in governance • facilitate discovery • reveal common needs and shared values • enhance the ability to act
A clear example is Change by Us, which Kesselman used to build the Brook Park Chicken Coop in the South Bronx.
City governments are also turning to digital tools to improve planning and budgeting so that citizens have greater input. Summit participant Jennifer Pahlka of Code for America has matched programmers with eight city governments to help them create new tools. In New Orleans, for example, a Blight Status pagehelps users find information about properties that have been abandoned or are in decline
