Our mission is to help create a society of people interested in their surroundings and willing to participate in addressing matters that affect their lives. For example, the place where they live, work, or study. At the same time, we want to offer a space that will make it easier for local authorities to involve citizens in decision-making. This is why we have developed a unique online platform for civic participation. It is based on expert knowledge, simple, intuitive, and versatile.

„Effectively obtaining feedback from our members and supporters had been a long-term challenge. Using the Decision 21 platform we initially took the advice of our supporters on what direction to take while planning our main campaign, and after exclusively positive reactions, we did not hesitate and introduced the platform as a tool to support internal democracy in our movement.“
Michal Horniecky, Head of Amnesty International Czech Republic mobilization

„The school PB taught students independence. They learned how to turn their ideas into projects, speak in front of the public, lead their own campaign, and persuade their schoolmates to vote for their project.“
