Outstanding innovation
​
_

​The main innovation in the PB projects of Iceland is overall more inclusiveness and more conversations. We have been trying to move more towards a mutual ownership regarding the PB projects instead of “only” informing the citizens about the project and how it’s going. We are taking measures to include the citizens more in the development of the projects and evaluation of ideas that come into the call for ideas. That will probably be implemented in 2020 both with a new feature on the web and offline evaluation meetings.

Principal tendencies detected
​
​_

​The principal tendencies during the implementation of PB experiences regarding the year on course is that we are reinforcing our focus on the participation of young people.
Reykjav.k did that especially by hiring influencers to promote during the call for ideas and that showed in participation numbers, but the age group 25-35 participation rate increased by 41,7% from the year before. That was the first project in the history of Reykjav.k that used influencers as a part of their advertisement campaign and that will be done again in the voting phase 30th of October until the 14th of November. A tendency noticed was also a big increase in organic distribution on social media during the call for ideas, we don’t know precisely why that happened but maybe the strengthening of the offline platforms and better conversations with idea makers and practitioners had an impact but we can’t measure it.
