CITIZEN FOCUS Sample Clauses

CITIZEN FOCUS. Improving the quality and outcomes of services for young people who are looked after is of paramount importance. Providers are therefore expected to solicit the views of all young people about the quality, quantity and appropriateness of services available on an annual basis. The views of parents/carers, pupils and schools must be sought and used to inform the improvement of the services and influence relevant services.

CITIZEN FOCUS. The holistic approach of the project includes the involvement of the citizens from the very beginning. Only their active participation will bring the necessary changes to implement the solutions developed in the project. Citizens should understand the need for better plastic waste recycling. Two complementary approaches will be used in this view: Workshops/trainings: PlastiCircle has developed a training plan that includes dedicated sessions for local citizens: • Involving citizens in the design of the containers through a workshop on co- creation methodology. Organised in Valencia in M5 by INNDEA. • Proper use of containers. Organised through workshops and videos on how to use smart containers completed with the distribution of 10,000 brochures. This will be organised in all three cities: Valencia, Alba Iulia and Utrecht in X00, X00, X00 by INNDEA, ALBA, UTRECHT. Co-design work: Co-design will be mainly focused on a Distributed Participatory Design (DPD) and Mass Participatory design (MPD). The application of both methodologies will have as a main objective the collection and incorporation of the input from all stakeholders in the final design of the PlastiCircle approach. Distributed Participatory Design (DPD) will be based on the realization of meetings in UTRECHT, INNDEA and ALBA IULIA in which the initial project approach will be explained to stakeholders (specially citizens will be invited but also associations and companies). Stakeholders will be asked to give comments and suggestions in these meetings on how to improve and adapt PlastiCircle approach to the specific needs of the cities in study. Mass Participatory design (MPD) will be based on the integration in the webpage of a platform to compile comments/suggestions from stakeholders. INNDEA will prepare the material needed to incorporate this platform in the webpage by ICLEI.
