CITIZEN PARTICIPATION

Janaagraha is a leading advocate of citizen participation in governance. If one were to ask any Indian which issues they feel hopeless about, the answers would all have one common actor: our government. Clearly, the largest challenge is to find practical answers to the question, “ How do we make our governments more effective ?”

Janaagraha believes the answer lies in the participation of citizens in government. Realistic solutions are possible through the bridges we build between people and their governments.

Three Janaagraha programmes – the Community Leadership Programme, Bala Janaagraha and Yuva Janaagraha work to promote citizen participation in governance.
