This project aims to offer a framework which will provide for a policy making forum through connecting citizens with people in politics and with other policy makers. Its aim is to promote innovative ways of communicating and debating policies with the wider public and to provide an independent and innovative debate on the future of politics and concrete public policies in Serbia. It intends to contribute to the improved image of politics in Serbian society through: motivating the political parties to adjust their programs and activities to major citizens’ concerns, encouraging citizens to increase their participation in the political process and policy making, and promoting the political culture by establishing channels of communication between policy makers and citizens. The project, thus, targets political parties, their leadership and policy makers, as well as the citizens of Serbia.
