Who is building this, and why.

"I grew up in a house and community where decisions are made collectively and earn their legitimacy. Most policy today loses that. We are putting it back, at the scale of a country."

SHENGO began with a simple observation: Ethiopia, and much of the continent, has no shared infrastructure for structured, auditable policy consultation. The knowledge exists, the people are willing, but there is no door for most of them to walk through.

We are building that door. Ethiopia first, continental by design, and rooted in a tradition of deliberation that long predates the technology.
