Virtual Town Hall

This project is a collaberaton between Public-i and North Lincolnshire council, a number of other local authorities are also participating in the pilot.

Councils are already making use of social networking tools like Facebook or YouTube to connect and communicate with their citizens. Local Government now needs to move beyond experimentation.  The virtual town hall looks at ways of connecting informal participation on the web into a more strategic approach to Local Democracy and how to use it as a basis for democratic renewal.
