Descripción del proyecto
Herramientas basadas en la inteligencia artificial al servicio de una democracia inclusiva y deliberativa
Las sociedades actuales experimentan una profunda falta de diálogo entre la ciudadanía y las instituciones responsables de la elaboración de políticas. El equipo del proyecto ORBIS, financiado con fondos europeos, abordará la desconexión entre ideas ambiciosas y acciones colectivas para posibilitar la transición hacia una democracia deliberativa más inclusiva, transparente y fiable en Europa. Asimismo, configurará y apoyará nuevos modelos democráticos desarrollados a través de procesos de democracia deliberativa. En ORBIS se desarrollará una solución digital sostenible utilizando herramientas y tecnologías avanzadas de inteligencia artificial (IA). Además, se vincularán teorías y soluciones tecnológicas de los ámbitos de las ciencias políticas y sociales, la innovación social, la IA, la argumentación y la democracia digital. En el proyecto se validarán los resultados a través de seis casos de uso donde se abordarán problemas contemporáneos, se experimentará con diversos modelos de participación y deliberación cívicos y se involucrará a partes interesadas.
Objetivo
ORBIS addresses the disconnects between ambitious ideas and collective actions at a large socio-technical scale. It responds to the profound lack of dialogue between citizenship and policy making institutions by providing a theoretically sound and highly pragmatic socio-technical solution to enable the transition to a more inclusive, transparent and trustful Deliberative Democracy in Europe. The project shapes and supports new democratic models that are developed through deliberative democracy processes; it follows a socio-constructive approach in which deliberative democracy is not a theory which prescribes new democratic practices and models, but rather the process through which we can collectively imagine and realize them.
ORBIS provides new ways to understand and facilitate the emergence of new participatory democracy models, together with the mechanisms to scale them up and consolidate them at institutional level. It delivers: (i) a sound methodology for deliberative participation and co-creation at scale; (ii) novel AI-enhanced tools for deliberative participation across diverse settings; (iii) a novel socio-technical approach that augments the articulation between deliberative processes and representative institutions in liberal democracies; (iv) new evidence-based democratic models that emerge from the application of citizen deliberation processes; (v) demonstrated measurable impact of such innovations in real-world settings.
The project builds on cutting-edge AI tools and technologies to develop a sustainable digital solution, and bridges theories and technological solutions from the fields of political and social science, social innovation, Artificial Intelligence, argumentation and digital democracy. The achievement of the project’s goal is validated through six use cases addressing contemporary issues at different scales and settings, experimenting with different civic participation and deliberation models, and involving diverse types of stakeholders.
