For citizens and independent experts
SHENGO opens consultation to people who never had access, and gives experts a reputational reason to contribute quality input rather than attend for a per diem.
An open, mobile first portal
Any citizen can submit to public consultations, in their language, with an anonymous option.
Citation and attribution for experts
Expert submissions are attributed, timestamped and citable. Contributions that inform decisions are flagged.
A profile that grows with you
A verified record of policy contributions builds professional standing in a way no workshop attendance can.
"The shengo principle is simple: every voice has a verified place in the decision. We are making that principle work at the scale of a country."
For civil society organisations
SHENGO gives civil society something it has rarely had: a verified, public record that its policy input was received. Advocacy moves from hope to documented fact.
Verified participation records
Export participation directly for your own reporting, instead of reconstructing it after the fact.
No geographic barrier
Regional groups submit to national consultations without travelling to the capital, on a mobile first interface.
Accountability after the decision
The audit trail shows which submissions were reflected, creating a new accountability mechanism.
What happens after you press submit.
For a citizen, taking part should feel safe and worthwhile. Here is exactly what SHENGO does with your voice, in plain terms.
You choose how you appear
Submit with your name, or anonymously. Either way your response is recorded. Anonymous submissions are never linked back to your identity.
Your submission is logged
Once logged, your response is timestamped on an audit trail designed so nothing is silently edited or removed.
You can see if it mattered
When the policy is decided, the public record shows what was incorporated. You can check whether the themes you raised were reflected.
Just a verified place in the decision.
