Civic engagement is vital for democratic governance. It empowers citizens to actively participate in shaping policies and decisions that impact their lives. Based on principles of inclusivity, transparency, accountability, empowerment, and respect for diverse opinions, it reinforces the significance of citizen rights, promotes civic education, amplifies citizen voices, and safeguards minority rights.
Numerous mechanisms facilitate citizen involvement, including public hearings, roundtables, meetings, citizen advisory committees, NGO representation on government committees, online platforms for feedback and consultation, and collaborative governance structures.
