CitizenLab

At the heart of Go Vocal, formerly known as CitizenLab, is a deeply rooted mission to build stronger, more participatory democracies. Since our inception in 2015, we've been driven by the belief that decision-making should be more inclusive, responsive, and ultimately, more trusted by the communities it serves. Our journey began with a simple yet powerful idea: to leverage technology to bridge the gap between governments and their residents, transforming civic engagement from a periodic, often cumbersome process into a continuous, accessible dialogue. We envision a world where every individual has the opportunity to shape their local environment, where their voice is not just heard but actively contributes to policy and community development. This vision fuels our passion and directs our innovation, pushing us to constantly refine our platform and explore new avenues for meaningful interaction.

Our culture is built on the principle of 'practicing what we preach.' We foster a workplace that champions diverse backgrounds and perspectives, ensuring equitable opportunities and cultivating an inclusive environment where every team member feels a sense of belonging. As a certified B Corporation, impact is not an afterthought for us; it's woven into the fabric of our operations. We are part of a global community of changemakers dedicated to addressing society's most critical challenges. Our global team of passionate engagement practitioners and local experts works hand-in-hand with hundreds of governments and organizations worldwide. Together, we are architects of systemic change, empowering public servants to cultivate a genuine culture of engagement. The evolution from CitizenLab to Go Vocal signifies our growth from an ideation tool to a comprehensive digital hub for local democracy, committed to amplifying community voices and translating valuable input into lasting positive impact, ensuring that democracy is truly for everyone.
