The UN Sustainable Development Goal 16.7 commits signatories to ‘ensure responsive, inclusive, participatory and representative decision-making at all levels’. The related target is the ‘proportion of population who believe decision-making is inclusive and responsive, by sex, age, disability and population group’ (emphasis added). The New Urban Agenda commits to ‘“promoting institutional, political, legal and financial mechanisms in cities and human settlements to broaden inclusive platforms, in line with national policies, that allow meaningful participation in decision-making, planning and follow-up processes for all, as well as enhanced civil engagement and co-provision and co-production.” (UN Habitat 2016: 14. Emphasis added). Both statements make it clear that evaluation of participatory policies is not about the quantity of citizens included in processes, but the quality and meaning of participation.
