The city of Jyväskylä has been selected to participate in an experimental project funded by Sitra (the Finnish Innovation Fund) aimed at promoting citizen participation. In this project, a randomly selected group of Jyväskylä residents are invited to participate in the Citizens’ Panel. The aim is to assemble a group with residents from different backgrounds and residental areas. The panel members will be briefed into municipal finances. After that they assess the impacts of the budget-balancing measures decided upon in the 2024 budget on the daily lives of citizens.
