Engaged, Indifferent, Skeptical or Critical? Disentangling Attitudes towards Local Deliberative Mini-Publics in Four Western European Democracies

Sebastien Rojon et al.

Summary: Research shows that there are various attitudes among supporters of democratic innovations, with citizens truly engaged focusing more on environmental issues, a majority expressing indifference towards mini-publics, an elitist group being skeptical of integrating citizens into policymaking, and a small share of critics showing low support and willingness to participate. The diversity of profiles poses challenges for using deliberative mini-publics to address sustainability issues.

Summary: Citizen science is a cost-effective method for wildlife monitoring, and integrating citizen science data with other datasets can improve population estimates and expand spatiotemporal inference. By collecting opportunistic data and integrating it with systematic data, citizen science programs can provide increased spatial and temporal coverage at reduced costs, leading to improved density estimates for population patterns.
