We.City 4+

We.city is an app to:

- Connect people in geographical proximity around common causes - to form civic initiatives
- Organise intuitive, open, and horizontal decision-making process inside the initiatives
- Match initiatives (and help them to make agreements) with people/organizations that provide goods or services, needed for their realization.
- Collectively gather resources needed for initiative realization.
- Be an experimental horizontal social governance system independent from any formal institutions, private entities, or governmental bodies

For whom?
​- It is for those who would like to see positive changes around them, but do not have the time, energy or knowledge to implement them on their own. It is an online platform for networking around common urban problems, to find solutions, resources and contractors for them collectively. Our goal is to prove that changing the space around is easy if doing it together.

Where does it come from?
- The project is based on the 11 principles of the international movement Project for Public Places, which was founded in 1975 to improve cities around the world through the efforts of ordinary people and local communities. For us, the most important ones are: “The community is the expert”, “You can’t do it alone”, and “Money is not the issue”. Our main hypothesis — if an initiative is really relevant, a community will find means to implement it in the best way — provided that there are convenient tools for collaboration and expert seeking like We.City web application.
