On November 14, The Flemish Association of Village Interests (Vlaamse Vereniging Dorpsbelangen) organized an online meeting and invited professor Tine De Moor to give a seminar on current types of citizen participation. First, she discussed four social trends in the relationship between citizens and the government. Then, she shared an overview of instruments for citizen involvement and zoomed in on citizen collectives as a ‘new’ form of citizen involvement, particularly in villages.
