The participant map.

What?

But wouldn’t this be better?

And wouldn’t this be even better?

And wouldn’t this be better still?

When?

When they want to talk to you.

Not this way.

Or this way.

Where?

Where they are.

That could be here.

Or here.

Just not this.

Why?

What government looks like from the outside

Not just to tick a box.

Build better evidence-based policy

To create a social good.

How?

It looks like mistakes could be made.

Seriously, just be human.

Nobody likes a faceless bureaucrat.

Spectrum of participation.

Take the brickbats. And the bouquets.

The possibilities are limitless.
