The project

ADDI is an ERC Synergy Project funded by the European Union.

Its goal is to study digitally augmented forms of civic participation through three core objectives:

#1

Designing technologies and procedures for citizen deliberation and participation

#2

Experimentally testing the impact of technology in deliberative and participatory forums

#3

Understanding the preferences expressed in digitally augmented forms of civic participation

At the end of the project we hope to have a better understanding of how digital technologies can improve democratic practices while providing a robust suite of scientifically validated open-source tools.

The team

The ADDI research team operates across four universities situated in three European countries: Toulouse in southern France, Amsterdam in the Netherlands, and Turku in Finland. Their expertise spans democratic theory, the empirical study of preferences, artificial intelligence, and social choice.
