Increased citizen participation by taking advantage as an online platform through
which citizens can easily participate anywhere, anytime, and encouraged participation of citizens by spreading the joy of voicing concerns on social issues and sharing them.
We emphasized the ‘deliberative democracy’ format in which even though the suggestions may not be perfect, people can develop them through online discussions and deliberations, and are allowed to share opinions through expressing sympathy and posting replies.

Parti Style - Metaphor for Better Democracy
Self,
Square, Fish flocks,
Stone tower, Fractal
Open space in our daily life,
Like fish flocks when cooperation is needed,
Like building stone towers together,
A small part of society changes the whole parts.

In the era of digital technology, how we create the foundation of our democracy?
Hangul, Korean official language, was created for enlightenment of citizens and share information for all. All the basic infrastructures; roads, bridges, transportation in our society were built by our ancestors, and we get benefits from them. Then what about digital infrastructures? Do we have enough access and know about it?
