Open Declaration on Public Services 2.0 in the European Union

This wiki is part of a project to encourage the European Union to embrace transparent, participative and empowering government. Together we have produced an Open Declaration on European Public Services. Now we are trying to do two things:

1) Get People to Endorse the Declaration: we are trying to get as many people as possible to endorse the open declaration via our very simple endorsement website: http://sites.google.com/site/endorsetheopendeclaration/

If you have not already endorsed the petition please do so now. Please also encourage your friends and contacts to endorse the petition by bloging, tweeting or talking to them (!) about it. You can also join our Facebook group  http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=150661944506&ref=mf and spread the word that way.

2) Write a Supporting Document: we also want to use this wiki to write a document with more details on how we think the three principles outlined in the document should be implemented. Please go to the discussion on each principle and help improve the current text setting out what we think European governments should do.

You can find the full text of the Open Declaration here. We will be working on the principles in order: starting with transparency, then going on to participation and empowerment.
