Place Publics
Place Publics is an individual component from the collborative project Creating Collaborative Futures.
Empowering diverse community participation in collective and place-based deliberation. Place Publics acts as a physical touchpoint with HAECID technology and facilitates the full process of making a complex decision within a community. The tool is used in a shared space by different groups throughout the decision-making process, with human and Al mediators guiding its users.
Place Publics seeks to ensure community members are empowered and informed to make democratic decisions by presenting and communicating complex information to all entities involved. Ensuring final decisions are made with a complete understanding of who and what it will affect and that those perspectives are present in the process while building an expanding body of knowledge by contributing to collective intelligence for future decisions.
Place Publics uses for main stages:
The Co-op board present a decision for deliberation.
Community and co-op members receive context for understanding from HAECID.
Community and co-op members input their perspective and ideas.
Coop members receive ranked solutions from HAECID, to deliberate on and reach a conclusion.
