IT for Change at the Write-shop on Participatory Planning for Gram Panchayat Development Plan

IT for Change was invited to provide inputs on leveraging the digital opportunity for participatory planning, at the Write-shop for state governments, on Participatory Planning for Gram Panchayat Development Plan, organised by the Ministry of Panchayati Raj (Government of India), at the Kerala Institute of Local Administration, in July 2015. In our submission, we drew upon insights from our Making Women's Voices and Votes Count project, and advocated the creation of ICT-enabled Gram Sabha Resource Centres to support participatory planning processes.
