Nástroje a metody účinného zapojení občanů do rozhodovacích procesů ve veřejné správě

This diploma thesis deals with a theoretical view of civic participation and examples of already implemented good practice in the Czech Republic and in the world. Involvement of the public in decision-making processes is a topic discussed at all levels of governance, which is shown not only by the efforts of cities to set aside parts of budgets for participatory purposes, but also by groups of companies that are engaged in the development of applications supporting citizen participation. The goal of my work is to focus on one of these efforts, which is being developed by the city of Strmilov in cooperation with the Polytechnic University in Jihlava in the creation of applications in the form of models of participatory creation of the city budget. In the practical part, I dedicate them to testing individual models and verifying their validity with the support of theoretical information. are specific suggestions for improving the models and a proposal for working with them.
