Campaign plan

Campaign plans structure when content is published and actions take place, and in the best case scenario, they are coordinated with political windows of opportunity (e.g., elections).

Data collection / counting

Data substantiates perceptions and can be used for external communication.

Initiative meets district politics

Citizens' initiatives can meet with district or city politicians to present and discuss their concerns. In district politics, no petition or formal basis is necessary for this; district politicians are usually open to discussion. It is important that the initiative is not politically appropriated by opposition parties and that the possibility of joint implementation with the district is communicated.

Joint Survey

Initiatives, together with political decision-makers, survey the public about the initiative and its demands.

Scientific evidence for specific demands

Initiatives are specifying their demands and backing them up with scientific findings (e.g., demand for 50 km of bicycle lanes by 2030).

Window Banner

Initiatives use window banners to communicate their demands to the public. This creates visibility and helps the initiative grow, encouraging more and more people to join the cause and the banner campaign.
