Active Local Democracy
Active local democracy means communities and councils working together through participation, deliberation and civic engagement so residents can shape decisions that affect their everyday lives.
MAV works with all levels of government to ensure that local policies reflect the needs and preferences of local communities and build capacity of communities and institutions to adapt, include diverse voices, and maintain trust and participation even under pressure. Resilient democracy is supported by trusted institutions, information integrity, and social cohesion.
