Collaborative Roadmap 2026 - 2027
Description
This is the space for collaborative roadmap development for the CONSUL DEMOCRACY software. We have identified five key development priorities for the next two years. We need your input to enrich and further prioritize these.
We propose five development priorities in the Proposals tab hereunder. We ask our community, users and partners, to participate and give feedback.
You can give your feedback in two easy ways:
- Give a thumps up or thumps down on the proposals.
- Leave comments on the proposals and/or interact with the comments of others.
Considering user requests and possible funding opportunities, the CONSUL DEMOCRACY Foundation most strongly supports the Data Dasboard and REST API proposals.
The deadline for receiving input is 30 June 2026. After the deadline we will publish a preliminary draft of the Roadmap 2026-2027 on this page.
