CALVIÀ WILL IMPLEMENT A PIONEER TECHNOLOGICAL SYSTEM IN THE ISLANDS TO BOOST THE CITIZEN PARTICIPATION
In the coming weeks it will be formalised an agreement with the Town Hall of Madrid which is already developing this participatory tool.
The Calvià Town Hall will be pioneer in the Balearic Islands within the implementation of technological tools to promote the citizen participation. For this reason, the Calvià Town Hall has agreed to develop a broad process of collaboration with the Town Hall of Madrid in matters of citizen participation, which will be set in the coming weeks by the signing of an agreement between both institutions.
With this agreement, the Calvià Town Hall aims to boost the transfer, adaptation and implementation of the technology currently developed by the Madrid City Council, through decide.madrid.es, for its integration in the participation system of Calvià, and to put it at disposal of other administrations of the Balearic Islands.
In order to adapt the mechanisms of decide.madrid.es to the scope of the Balearic Islands, it counts on the Institutional Extension Service, launched by the City Council of Madrid, for which both local administrations began talks several months ago.
In a coordinated way, the Calvià Town Hall will create a Servei de Transferència de Tecnologies de la Participació (Participation Technologies Transfer Service) which will allow other Town Halls and public institutions in the islands to have this technology in a short period of time, reducing to a great extent the implementation costs and raising the efficiency levels in both, the implementation of systems and the resource management.
Thus, Calvià joins the group of municipalities drivers of the new participation technologies and mechanisms nationally, becoming a benchmark for the extension of this technology in the Balearic field, just as they are doing municipalities such as Barcelona and Oviedo in their respective regions.
