Steps to Community

3. Enable

4. Create

5. Engage

The BuildAction platform enables communities to communicate, collaborate and cooperate in their sustainable development and protection and to coordinate collective action.  It helps community stakeholders meet their civic duty to actively participate in community development and other community affairs.

The BuildAction stakeholder participation toolkit is a secure, comprehensive, open platform that connects different resources and tools of participation.  It is an innovative system that facilitates the transparent inclusion and participation of all interested stakeholders in the sustainable development of communities that complements existing or planned citizen participation initiatives.

BuildAction allows for the sharing of discussion, resources, news, posts, and alerts via email and social media platforms.  Projects, events and petitions provide stakeholders with an open, democratic, and transparent mechanism to engage with and address issues of concern to government policymakers and officials.  While improving the quality of public decision-making and policy, it also improves the assessability and accountability of the mechanisms of participatory democracy.

BuildAction facilitates cooperation and collaborative efforts between government, science, business, and individuals.  By sharing information and knowledge communities improve future practices and policies for their sustainable development and protection.

The BuildAction toolkit improves the effectiveness and efficiency of participatory democracy for communities.  The active participation of stakeholders at the local level, whether city, town, village or hamlet, is necessary for their sustainable development and protection.

The BuildAction platform was developed to comply with the “OECD Guidelines for Citizen Participation Processes”.  It is for the direct participation of civil-, private-, and public-sector stakeholders while enabling municipalities to fulfill their role and public duty to all stakeholders in the sustainable development and operation of the community, the use of resources, and the protection of the community now and for the future.
