It is a tool to empower citizens, enable participative policy-making and strengthen democracy. It also functions as an accountability directory for use by citizens to see who is accountable for what issue and to review the work of our political leaders on those issues.Approach: Issue-based & Data-driven Issues form the building blocks on the platform and are linked to: 1.
