mobilna ljudska javna pisarna velenje / velenje mobile citizens’ office

V lokalnih skupnostih številni prebivalci ne sodelujejo pri sprejemanju odločitev, ki vplivajo na njihovo vsakdanje življenje. Nekateri ne zaupajo institucijam, drugi se bojijo javno izraziti svoje mnenje, spet tretji zaradi starosti, socialnega položaja ali slabše dostopnosti digitalnih storitev težje sodelujejo v javnih razpravah. Njihove potrebe in predlogi zato pogosto ostanejo preslišani.

Projekt Mobilna ljudska javna pisarna Velenje bo prebivalcem omogočil, da svoje pobude, mnenja in težave izrazijo neposredno, brez zapletenih postopkov in tudi anonimno. Zavod SOLIDAR bo na različnih lokacijah po občini Velenje vzpostavil mobilno pisarno, kjer bodo lahko prebivalci spregovorili o težavah v lokalnem okolju in predlagali rešitve. Posebno pozornost bo namenil mladim, starejšim, socialno ranljivim skupinam in prebivalcem odročnejših krajev.

Zbrane pobude bo organizacija analizirala, pripravila priporočila za izboljšanje lokalnih politik in jih posredovala pristojnim institucijam. Spremljala bo tudi njihove odzive ter javnost obveščala o tem, kako so bile pobude obravnavane.

Projekt bo spodbujal aktivno državljanstvo, svobodo izražanja, vključevanje prebivalcev v odločanje in večjo odgovornost lokalnih institucij. Tako bo prispeval h krepitvi demokracije in spoštovanju temeljnih vrednot Evropske unije na lokalni ravni.

Pričakovani rezultati

• Prebivalci bodo imeli več možnosti za sodelovanje pri odločanju v lokalni skupnosti. Prek Mobilne ljudske pisarne bodo v 12 mesecih zbrali najmanj 100 pobud, predlogov in mnenj prebivalcev ter jih posredovali pristojnim.
• Prebivalci bodo bolje obveščeni o možnostih sodelovanja in delovanju Mobilne ljudske pisarne. Z najmanj šestimi medijskimi objavami in 12 objavami na družbenih omrežjih bodo širšo javnost seznanjali s potekom projekta in njegovimi rezultati.
• Predlogi prebivalcev bodo dobili večjo težo pri oblikovanju lokalnih politik. Pripravljeno bo javno zagovorniško poročilo z analizo zbranih pobud, odzivi odločevalcev in priporočili za izboljšanje lokalnih politik.
• Tudi druge organizacije bodo lahko uporabile model Mobilne ljudske pisarne. Pripravljen bo praktični priročnik, model pa bodo predstavili na zaključnem dogodku z najmanj 20 udeleženci in ga posredovali najmanj desetim organizacijam oziroma drugim pomembnim deležnikom.

In local communities, many residents do not participate in decisions that affect their everyday lives. Some do not trust institutions, others are afraid to express their opinions publicly, while others find it more difficult to participate in public discussions due to their age, social circumstances or limited access to digital services. As a result, their needs and proposals often go unheard.

The project Velenje Mobile Citizens’ Office will enable residents to express their initiatives, opinions and concerns directly, without complicated procedures and also anonymously. Zavod SOLIDAR will establish a mobile office at various locations across the Municipality of Velenje, where residents will be able to discuss problems in their local environment and propose solutions. Special attention will be given to young people, older people, socially vulnerable groups and residents of more remote areas.

The organisation will analyse the collected initiatives, prepare recommendations for improving local policies and submit them to the relevant institutions. It will also monitor their responses and inform the public about how the initiatives have been addressed.

The project will promote active citizenship, freedom of expression, public participation in decision-making and greater accountability of local institutions. In this way, it will contribute to strengthening democracy and respect for the fundamental values of the European Union at the local level.

Expected Results

• Residents will have more opportunities to participate in decision-making in their local community. Through the Mobile Citizens’ Office, at least 100 initiatives, proposals and opinions from residents will be collected over 12 months and submitted to the relevant authorities.
• Residents will be better informed about opportunities for participation and the activities of the Mobile Citizens’ Office. Through at least six media publications and 12 social media posts, the wider public will be informed about the project's progress and results.
• Residents' proposals will carry greater weight in shaping local policies. A public advocacy report will be prepared, including an analysis of the collected initiatives, responses from decision-makers and recommendations for improving local policies.
• Other organisations will also be able to use the Mobile Citizens’ Office model. A practical handbook will be prepared, and the model will be presented at a closing event with at least 20 participants and shared with at least ten organisations or other key stakeholders..
