 > We distinguish three general levels or dimensions of the project: the political (focused on the democratic model that Decidim promotes, on its impacts on public policies and organisations and on society more broadly), the technopolitical (focused on how the platform is designed, the politics it embodies and the way in which it is itself democratically governed) and the technical (focused on the conditions of production, operation and success of the project—the digital factory, collaborative mechanisms, licences, training, etc.).
