Meu Porta-Voz: Support System for Popular Participation in Legislature Power.
Abstract
The current political brazilian scenario does not provide effective mechanisms to include public participation in the decision-making of government policies. Thus, the objective of this work was to create a mobile app that offers tools for the population to discuss and suggest solutions to problems found in cities. In this way, through the use of Collective Intelligence, the platform is able to define the priorities of the city. It was necessary to choose people with specific profile to join the platform and to apply for the Political office of councilor. These people are responsible for solving the demands of the population. As result, a mobile application was developed implementing all the requirements to achieve the objectives. A case study was performed in two cities of the country: Ouro Preto - MG and Araraqua - SP. We concluded that the use of information technology can assist in the public participation of political decision-making.
