With around 60% of signatures collected online, the digital dimension of the European Citizens’ Initiative (ECI) needs to continuously evolve in order to reflect the realities of 21st century campaigning. The launch of the European Commission’s new online collection system in 2020 is an opportunity to make the system as easy to use and campaigner-friendly as possible.
This page has been created in the framework of the ECI Day 2019 to gather YOUR ideas and suggestions on the Commission’s future Online Collection System.
Everyone is welcome to join the discussion!
Please kindly post your ideas in the comments section below by answering to the following questions:
1. What are the strengths of the Commission’s Online Collection System (OCS)?
2. What are the weaknesses of the Commission’s Online Collection System (OCS)?
3. Please suggest some improvements to tackle the weaknesses you have mentioned (possibly inspired by systems used in the context of similar participatory democracy instruments at local or national level).
4. The future ECI portal will incorporate three main elements: the ECI Forum, the register and the central Online Collection System. How would you design the ECI portal to include the three components into one single user-friendly access point?
