In mid‑July 2026 the governing council of La Palma introduced the Patio Ciudadan@ platform, an online space for residents to submit suggestions, report incidents and share good practices on social‑service topics such as dependency care and youth support. The system records contributions for trend analysis and feeds directly into the island’s strategic planning, with data‑protection safeguards and a monitoring dashboard. A week later, other local authorities in the archipelago followed suit. Palma’s city council launched a digital platform to collect proposals for revising its Accessibility Plan, featuring a questionnaire and an interactive map, backed by a €100,000 budget. Simultaneously, the Cabildo of Fuerteventura installed physical suggestion boxes in its four citizen‑service offices, providing a direct channel for ideas on public‑service improvements. Both initiatives are part of a broader modernization effort to increase citizen involvement in municipal decision‑making. ## Timeline ### 2026-07-30: Palma and Fuerteventura roll out new citizen suggestion platforms Palma opens an online platform to collect input for a new Accessibility Plan, while Fuerteventura installs suggestion boxes in four offices to boost citizen feedback on public services. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/palma-and-fuerteventura-roll-out-new-citizen-suggestion-platforms ### 2026-07-18: Cabildo de La Palma launches Patio Ciudadan@ platform to improve social services La Palma’s Cabildo opens Patio Ciudadan@, an online channel for citizens to suggest improvements and report issues in social services, with data analysis guiding policy. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/cabildo-de-la-palma-launches-patio-ciudadan-platform-to-improve-social-services --- Cite as: Canary Islands citizen participation platforms.
