Mapping Participatory Digital Governance

Exploring organisations and projects that give communities voice in governing digital technologies

The Open Government Partnership’s Digital Governance challenge calls for national and local governments to commit to “strengthen transparency and public oversight of AI, automated-decision making, and data protection frameworks” including by “creating specific public participation opportunities”.

To support this, we’ve been commissioned to carry out a mapping of organisations that are developing and leading participatory digital governance activities, and to identify possible examples of participatory digital governance that might inspire new commitments and actions.

This project runs from November 2024 to March 2025.

Take part in our five minute mapping survey and share examples you know of.

You can also use the survey form to register for project updates, or express interest in taking part in a project interview.

Over March 2025 we’re mapping out organisations and projects across the globe that are giving communities a voice in the governance of digital technology in public or private sectors as part of a rapid research project for the Open Government Partnership.
