Crowdsourced Political Platforms

Mexico City Lets Citizens Contribute to the Official Constitution

— June 26, 2016 — Pop Culture
Mexico City is turning the drafting of their official constitution over to the people in a show of digital democracy and offline crowdsourcing. The capital of Mexico is creating a crowdsourced constitution as a trial.

Citizens of Mexico City can contribute to the city's new constitution through an online platform called Plataforma Constitución CDMX. 9 million citizens are invited to help draft the city's constitution by making a comment on the first draft of the pending constitution, offer written proposals for the consideration of the public, take surveys to help form future drafts and organize formal meetings on the subject. Offline kiosks are also available throughout the city so others can contribute to the document.

However, citizen contributions do not legally have to be added to the final draft of the official constitution.
Trend Themes
1. Digital Democracy - The concept of digital democracy allows citizens to actively participate in the drafting of official constitutions, creating more inclusive and representative political systems.
2. Crowdsourcing - Crowdsourced political platforms enable governments to tap into the collective intelligence of their citizens, fostering greater transparency and citizen engagement in decision-making processes.
3. Offline Engagement - Offline kiosks and formal meetings provide alternative avenues for citizen participation, ensuring inclusivity for those without online access and promoting a more diverse range of perspectives in constitution drafting.
Industry Implications
1. Government - Government entities can adopt crowdsourced political platforms to involve citizens in constitution drafting, fostering co-creation of public policies and strengthening democratic processes.
2. Technology - Technology companies can develop and provide user-friendly online platforms like Plataforma Constitución CDMX, facilitating citizen engagement and digital democracy initiatives for governments around the world.
3. Legal Services - Legal service providers can offer expertise in navigating the complexities of crowdsourced constitutions, ensuring legal compliance while facilitating public input and citizen-driven governance.
