“Resume collaboration to renew democracy”
“Resume collaboration to renew democracy”.
He says so in a note ArengoLab, which launched “theidea of giving life in our country to a participatory democracy and not merely delegated with the vote, inspired by the spirit of the Arengo of 1906 and also referring to the ‘Charter’ of the Council of Europe of 22 January 2014 “.
Always ArengoLab “asked the associations and the social and economic parts of the country for one of them, which closely involved the participation of confrontation with the institutions, which have the responsibility of governing the country and its fundamental sectors (ISS, PA, school, etc.). ), and of influential and regular participation in public interest policies “.
There participation, The comparison and especially the sharing of social responsibilities “they are not insured in the amount and manner indicated in the Council of Europe recommendation”.
He also “opened a dialogue with those who gave their availability to this confrontation which was slowed down by the summer, by the referendum campaign and also by the season of trade unions congresses with which an interesting discussion is opened” and, in the meantime, “worked on a bill on the subject that ArengoLab would like to present through the popular initiative “. re-establish the central role of citizens and social partners as stakeholders and accountable, as well as rights, and therefore valuable interlocutors and contributions for local and central administrations (‘Nothing about us without us’) “.
To this end, ArengoLab “returns to solicit the availability to the collaboration of all those who will be that our democracy can be renewed and adapted to the evolving times and to the indications already provided by the Council of Europe“. The invitation to this collaboration” is particularly addressed to the social partners and associations that are bearers of the social and cultural aspirations and needs of citizens; this because we recognize the luxuriance of a San Marino association that sometimes struggles to coordinate and expresses in a unified manner“.
“Without this renewal – ArengoLab finally warns – we risk the alienation of citizens from politics and from the awareness that a country without participation in democracy has no future. In times of great fragility of democratic institutions, of connectivity rather than collectivity, of individualism, it is necessary to open our eyes to the local and global reality, to network, to act together, to cultivate trust“.
