FUPOL ProjectFUPOL

FUPOL aims at a completely new approach to citizen engagement in policy development. Major innovations like multichannel social computing and crowd sourcing will change the way politicians communicate with citizens and enterprises and take decisions. The system will be able to automatically collect, analyse and interpret opinions expressed on a large scale from the Internet. This will enable governments to gain a better understanding of the needs of citizens. Likewise the software will have the capabilities to simulate the effects of policies and laws and to assist governments in the whole policy design process.  Diginus is supporting the UK Partner, EasyConects, in delivering a pilot deployment in South Yorkshire.

FUPOL is funded under the EU 7th Framework Programme.
