LEX-IS
The vision of the LEX-IS Project is to improve the legislative process in National Parliaments through enhancing public participation in the preparatory stages (legislation formation and debate) with the use of state-of-the-art information technology tools and methodologies, specifically targeting and promoting the participation of younger citizens in the public debate on key-issues for the society.
At the end of the project parliaments, ministries, local authorities, NGOs, collective and representative bodies, citizens should be provided with the ability: to query and view the legal structure of a law that is under formation; to view the argumentation structure of a law that is under formation, by creating corresponding visualisations and presenting them to the LEX-IS platform front end; to express opinions around legal arguments that are presented by the participating organisations, or opinions of other parties, in a structured way that promotes participative decision-making.
