PARTICIPATION CONSULTANCY
We work closely with individual organisations to design creative interventions that shift culture and practice by helping them to think of people as Citizens first and foremost.
"Working with New Citizen Project helped us learn about the importance and power of the consumer-citizen shift. It inspired and motivated us to do more, and more tangibly it catalysed a programme of work over the past 5 or so"

COLLABORATIVE INNOVATION
We bring together different organisations around a shared question to explore what more authentic participation would look like in their specific sector.
These projects generally result in an output that others in the sector can work with and develop to help the ideas spread further and take hold.
We hold regular bootcamps and training sessions to equip representatives of all types of organisation to progress their work through our ideas and tools.
You can register interest in our future training opportunities to be the first to find out about upcoming sessions, including our regular Citizen Quests.
"It was well-run, engaging and I enjoyed the group aspects. It was a great, well-thought-out way of developing ideas and I wish all organisations could work like this!"

We live in a time when big decisions are piling up all around us, globally, nationally, locally, and even inside organisations. At the same time, trust in institutions and leaders - and especially in elected representatives - is falling through the floor.
We need a new way forward. The New Citizen Project team has been working over the last four years to develop and test a framework we call RAPID Democracy in response to this challenge.
