Preferred term

collaborative governance  

Definition

  • Collaborative governance is a way of conducting policies whereby a government involves its citizens, social organizations, enterprises, and other stakeholders in the early stages of the policy-making process. The contrast with more traditional public policy procedures is that parties are truly involved in the development of policy proposals, while in classic opportunities of public comment, citizen and interest group involvement only occurred once the policy proposal had been developed.
