Seedstars has announced a call for participation in its Digital Democracy Challenge.
The challenge seeks innovative, low-cost, and viable digital solutions to uphold civic and democratic public space.
Technology has facilitated inclusive participation far beyond any other means of communication. It has also served to promote democracy and expand citizen participation while also reaching people who have been left out of democratic processes.
Hence, it is vitally important that people come together to develop innovative solutions and contribute to furthering Goal 16 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
