Radnai Márk, the government commissioner for a humane and functioning Hungary, announced on his social media that a new national public participation platform is being developed and is planned to open to the public at the end of August. The stated aim of the project is to make public consultations more transparent and easier to follow.
How the system will work
- Contributions and proposals submitted on the platform will be summarized by artificial intelligence; those AI summaries will then be processed by experts.
- The platform will host local and national consultations, community ideas and public debates.
- Users will be able to follow topics tailored to their interests, receive notifications about new consultations, and track the effect of their own participation.
- According to the commissioner, the system will show which proposals receive support, which reach decision-makers, and what happens to submitted opinions (so they do not "get lost in a mailbox").
Expectations and next steps
Radnai said the development could fundamentally change how public consultations operate in Hungary, and expressed the goal that "collective thinking becomes part of our everyday life." He also said he will soon show the first images of the platform.
Why this matters
The announcement matters because the proposed solution combines increased transparency with technological support—artificial intelligence—to handle public input. If the promised traceability and feedback mechanisms are implemented in practice, the platform could influence how citizen proposals are routed into policymaking processes.
Timing
According to the commissioner’s announcement, the platform is scheduled to open to the public at the end of August.
