This website was launched in April 2007. In March 2006, a research report had been published that promoted the idea to create this online database: "E-Participation in Germany and the UK". We felt that the study was a good and important thing, but that we would have to keep track of further developments.

The e-participation.net project is supposed to last at least till springtime of 2008. At the beginning of 2008, we will discuss how to proceed with those data we have acquired by then.
