İzmir Citizen Assembly expansion
Overview
The İzmir Metropolitan Municipality and the İzmir Planning Agency have expanded the İzmir Citizen Assembly, a participatory urban management initiative. The program allows residents to influence decision-making regarding local needs through thematic working groups.
Initially, the assembly expanded to 18 districts. Sessions in Çiğli, Bayraklı, and Karşıyaka resulted in 59 finalized policy proposals covering areas such as health, education, culture, waste management, and sustainable transportation. Health was identified as a primary concern across these districts.
The initiative subsequently grew to cover 21 districts. Following meetings in Buca, Bornova, and Kemalpaşa, an additional 115 policy proposals were approved by citizen votes. These sessions included educational components on democracy, human rights, and citizenship. All district-level proposals are intended for integration into the broader İzmir Provincial Citizen Assembly to shape regional urban management.
