The main aim of Intergrated Action Plan (IAP) of Tartu is to provide guidelines for communication and engagement activities for e-engagement of key stakeholders on 3 priority focus topics presented in graph 1. According to our vision all these 3 focus areas are interrelated and partly overlapping, so addressing one, the other two will be affected as well.
The IAP of Tartu is a practical document focusing on concrete actions and its main aim is to help city officials and communication specialists in particular, to plan and implement e-engagement activities in focus areas.
The successful implementation of IAP should help City Government of Tartu to achieve the following goals in focus areas:
- More people are participating in desicion-making process and governance of city
- The desicions made are of better quality and better understood by citizens
- Better cooperation with key stakeholders leads to new innovative co-creation models and tools/platforms
The focus topics and goals listed are in line with challenges and priority areas highlighted in all startegial documents of the city such as Master Plan 2030 , Development plan for Tartu 2018-2025 and Development Strategy 2030 as well as political commitments and agreements.
Using brainstorming, crowdsourcing and other methods and organizing numerous workshops for engaging stakehoders the following new activities were designed.
All activities are expected to be completed by 2020.
