Empowering Leaders to Make the Best Decisions
Finally, a digital platform that harnesses the power of curated policy-making and the wisdom of the crowd to transform the world.
Change Starts Here
At Civonus, we believe public policy decisions are the building blocks for a better world, shaping our day-to-day lives, communities and society today and for generations to come.
That’s why we’ve created the world’s first digital policy-making platform.
Embedded in Best Practices
Rest easy knowing best practices are embedded into every step of the policy-making process. We’ve spent thousands of hours researching, designing, and testing the Civonus platform.
21st Century Public Sphere
Our public sphere is built for 21st-century engagement and meets people where they are – online. It removes many barriers to attendance, it’s more economical, and it enables participation across distance and time.
Builds Broad Consensus
We pair our innovative technology with human moderation to engage a wide audience and gather diverse input. This fosters consensus-building and bridges differences of opinion.
Borderless Collaboration
Civonus enables easy collaboration across borders made for the old world. As more leaders adopt the platform, our common goals and dreams as global citizens will trump jurisdictional boundaries.
