demokratis
Demokratis.ch is a digital platform that simplifies access to public consultation processes at both the federal and cantonal levels in Switzerland. Languages: German, French, Ialian. It makes legislative proposals easier to understand, more transparent, and more accessible, enabling citizens to participate at an early stage in the development of new laws and regulations.
The platform aims to strengthen democratic participation and make political processes more understandable to a broader public. In an age of growing social and political complexity, it is increasingly important that citizens understand how decisions are made and how they can contribute constructively to shaping them.
Beyond its civic function, Democratis also creates new opportunities for research and analysis. For the first time, consultation submissions are collected in a central, structured, and accessible format. This generates valuable data on the issues that matter to citizens, patterns of public participation, and how societal interests and priorities evolve over time.
Demokratis is conceived as a digital public good. Its social value is significant: it promotes transparency, strengthens civic education, and encourages broader participation in democratic decision-making. At the same time, its potential for commercial revenue is limited. To ensure its continued development and public accessibility, the platform relies on the support of foundations and philanthropic partners.
