theory of change

Our theory of change explains how activities are intended to produce a series of results that contribute to achieving the final intended impacts.

Our aim is not to provide a definitive strategy for Voca, as it would make no sense to define in advance what might emerge out of a civic tech ecosystem. Instead, Voca is by design an open-source technology shaped by its community and stakeholders to achieve its goals.

Our vision is a resilient society with transparent and accountable governance structures built through inclusive democratic participatory processes.

Voca’s theory of change is based on the assumption that societal change must emerge from the bottom up and that civic techs provide democratic participation technologies, the tools for societies to initiate these changes.

Therefore Voca’s hypothesis is that by facilitating the ease of access to these tools to existing field professionals they will be empowered to provide better participation services at scale to address today’s most pressing issues.
