“Thanks to the PF team, we have achieved to build and implement successfully the agenda of participatory planning in our institution. I really enjoy how these experts are practical as well as conceptual in their work.They helped to quickly turn our internal team from absolute novices to experts, who now design and manage robust and complex participatory programs and projects.”
“We have worked with the Participation Factory for the past two years on our program “The Learning Regions”, which has created the first generation of participation coordinators in the five Slovak regional governments. PF are true ambassadors of change, regardless of the type of public administration ecosystem which they enter. Their work is not stereotypical based on copied patterns. On the contrary, they offer new perspectives and optics, practical solutions and a strong leadership which are crucial.”
“Participation Factory is a trusted member of People Powered and an organisation coordinating activities of its Regional Hub for Central Eastern Europe. We have been closely cooperating with them and can attest to their high level of expertise in the field of participation and Civic Tech. Their holistic approach to public participation rests on their ability to thoroughly assess needs of a given community, provide support in creating a participation infrastructure, and pass on their know-how built on years of practical experience from the fieldwork with communities around the world.”
“The PF team has had a crucial role in the development of systematic participation in the city of Prague. We managed to set up the agenda of participation in our district thanks to them as well. I have taken part in a number of their capacity building programs which have always brought very valuable international experiences and good practices.”
“In my opinion there is no other participation expert group in Czechia and Slovakia that would have such a vast experience of working with the public as well as a deep understanding of the public sector’s inner processes.”
We believe the most powerful solutions emerge when human insight and robust data come together. At Participation Factory, we make this happen.
