CLEEN FOUNDATION
EXPRESSION OF INTEREST TO DESIGN, DEVELOP AND HOST WEBSITE AND MOBILE APPLICATION FOR THE E-PARLIAMENT ON CONSTITUENCY SECURITY GOVERNANCE AND PUBLIC SAFETY PROJECT

Introduction:
The CLEEN Foundation (formerly known as Centre for Law Enforcement Education) is a non-governmental organization established in January 1998 with the mission of promoting public safety, security, and accessible justice through empirical research, legislative advocacy, demonstration programs, and publications, in partnership with government, civil society and the private sector.

Background
Several nations around the world have embraced e-parliament to bring their parliaments closer to their constituents with varying degrees and have different levels of success. The Republic of Korea has adopted the use of mobile applications for parliament to operate a smart e-parliament that promotes participation, openness and efficiency. The Korean parliaments have access to applications that provide support to bill deliberation, research analysis and promotion of legislative activities. Similarly, Greece has adopted “Vouliwatch”, Brazil has designed “e-democracia” while the United Kingdom operates “What Do They Know and Alaveteli” as platforms to promote dialogue between citizens and parliamentarians and enhance the relationship between citizens and their representatives. These platforms offer citizens access to their representatives’ profiles and provide opportunities to communicate, evaluate and hold their representatives accountable. Citizens are also able to keep track of legislative initiatives and debate solutions to policy problems. Over time, African countries like South Africa, Zambia, Rwanda, and Zimbabwe have given their legislatures online presence and have adopted the internet for providing information on the legislature’s activities. Parliamentarians are an important stakeholder in every democracy and thus e-parliament platforms increase the participation of the citizens they represent and also provide the opportunity for electorates to share areas of daily life worthy of legislation in a bid to ensure that the dividends of democracy are available to all.
