2023 Award "Best Practice in Citizen Participation"
17th Edition
Euskadi: Agenda Nagusi, a model for public and social participation with the elderly
It's a model of public and social governance in collaboration with the elderly. One way of making better decisions in the face of social challenges is to compare them with the different agents involved, a methodology that promotes collective knowledge of society, bringing value to decision-making.
This model responds to the need for :
- BETTER DECISIONS MORE IN TOUCH WITH REALITY: on the one hand, public administration is faced with a government AGENDA full of complex challenges, requiring the broadest possible base of innovative capacity in order to make better decisions.
- PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES WANT TO PLAY AN ACTIVE ROLE IN PUBLIC LIFE. THEY MUST BE CONSIDERED NOT ONLY AS "OBJECTS" OF ATTENTION AND CARE, BUT ALSO AS ACTIVE "SUBJECTS" IN THE SEARCH FOR SOLUTIONS.
- A GOVERNANCE MODEL BASED ON TRUST, TRANSPARENCY AND VISIBLE RESULTS.
THEME-DEFICTIONS" TO INTRODUCE FOR A GOVERNANCE PROCESS:
Topics of interest to be proposed either by civil society, via the EAB (Euskadiko Adinekoen Batzordea - Basque Country Assembly of Gifted People), or by the Basque Government (all departments).
- Subjects vary according to objective:
- For standardization (laws, decrees, regulations, etc.)
- For evaluation or specific proposals
- For anticipation or prospecting purposes

- General interest
- Channelable/ manageable
