ENGAGE 4 CHANGE in a new way.











Democracy is an audience participation sport.

The Citizen Wish List Project is an effort to engage the fellow citizens in a dialog about what we want, what's working and for sharing good ideas for improving quality of life.

The beautiful thing about democracy is that it is meant to represent the will of the people. It is flexible and adaptable and able to change according to the needs of our society. 

The problem is, too few people are participating in the process.

Another serious problem is those serving in government are too often not serving the needs of those they represent and the greater good, but themselves. 




Perhaps you feel your voice will not be heard. Perhaps you feel there is nothing you can do to change things. Not true. Please choose to be part of a solution by sharing your wishes.

By choosing to participate in this social experiment you are empowering yourself and helping to create a better future for our children.

HOW IT WORKS:

In 10-15 minutes you can answer 8 core subject questions and a few control questions in this first survey.

Through a series of simple conversation starters we will begin a dialog centered on eight central themes which are common to all human beings.

The eight topics of discussion are:
FAMILY, EDUCATION, WORK, ENVIRONMENT, SECURITY, PR & The MEDIA, HEALTHCARE & MONEY.

We will discuss each theme in greater depth as the participants, that's YOU & many other neighbors, share your wishes and feedback.

This is a long term project as these topics require an in-depth dialog to really find solutions to the portions of our governmental & neighborly relations which aren't quite right.

This project was launched at the opening of the FIRST EVER 12-City TransEuropean Festival of Arts, Culture & Politics on May 6th, 2011.






The TransEuropa Fest is managed by European Alternatives, a non-profit organization dedicated to Democracy, Equality, Culture Beyond the Nation State.

WHO WE ARE:

The Citizen Wish List Project was created by a single citizen. It is managed by The Cultural Compass Institute.

The Cultural Compass Institute works globally and is dedicated to Good Works & Good Neighborly Relations.

We offer training programs and services to help foster 360 Degrees of Cultural Understanding.

It is our hope that this project will spark an unprecedented level of citizen participation from neighborhoods worldwide. 

It is also our hope that contributors to the Citizen Wish List  will not only share their thoughts but also spread the word about this project and use any good ideas to perhaps improve the quality of life in their neighborhoods.
