How this is performed now...

  • Process organizers Process organizers create workflows that structure the development of outputs such that they’re implementable.
  • Citizens' assembly organizers Citizens’ assemblies organizers create opportunities for experts and commissioning authorities to review draft outputs and comment on implementability and scope. Workflows are designed to support the templated development of outputs in required forms. The commissioning authority might provide requirements or guidelines for outputs to maximize their uptake (e.g., town plans, rates, functions)
