Digital civic engagement

Community-driven organizations (like cities, schools and nonprofits ) need a way to run meaningful online engagements —with technology that works seamlessly, informing respondents and guiding civil discourse.

Enter Civil Space. Designed and built by Domain7’s team in close partnership with city leaders, Civil Space has helped thousands of citizens and constituents have their voices heard, and helped “listening leaders” make smarter, more informed decisions. It’s now available to help any community plan their futures, collaboratively.

Today’s citizens need other options for engagements than long, cumbersome consultations with multiple in-person town-halls. They should be able to engage on the move, on a mobile phone. They need to be able to connect at any time of day—while a child naps, on a lunch break, or during an early commute. And they need to understand context, not from a poster board in a gym or a PDF download, but from clear, easy-to-digest, right-time, right-place, educational content. All of this is what Civil Space empowers.

For community leaders, automatic toxicity filtering means the trolls aren’t flooding your comment boxes with nonsense; instead, diverse views can be heard and the citizen’s true concerns rise to the top. Reports are instant and clear, saving you from wading through spreadsheets and allowing you to respond quickly to your community. And ongoing project communication is coordinated from a centralized, collaborative platform.
