"e-Deliberation™","jdcusin","An e‑Deliberation™ event is a collaborative deliberation process mediated online. Participants work individually, in teams, and as a group to address or resolve the Focus of the event. The process is systematic and is consent-based. This approach also allows minority ideas to be considered carefully. The process yields a multipronged, integrated strategy or policy around which there has been a meeting of the minds and a critical mass of persons to ensure its success in implementation.

"Initiative Process","Vicnin","The initiative process is a form of direct democracy. Two types of initiative process are widely in use today.  The first is called the citizens’ initiative. In the citizens’ initiative process, citizens draft a legislative bill or constitutional amendment (a “measure”), which they then propose by petition; if the petition receives sufficient popular support, the measure is then placed on the ballot and can be enacted into law by a direct vote of citizens.  The second type of initiative process is called the agenda initiative. In the agenda-initiative process, citizens draft a measure, which they then propose by petition; if the petition receives sufficient popular support, the measure is submitted to the legislature, which decides whether to enact or implement the measure.","DefinitionThe initiative process is a form of direct democracy.
