Panel Discussion

Examining the prospects of shared citizen-state roles for environmental services

Synopsis

Involving citizens in delivering public services has gained traction among policy practitioners and scholars in recent decades. Viewing service provision as the role of the State and propagation of technocratic, expert-driven top-down policy solutions could keep active and continuous citizen engagement low. Advocates of co-production argue that such shared roles with the state allows citizens to take greater control over the outcomes of public services and hence, their lives. On the other hand critics have also viewed co-production as an appeasement solution for structural inequalities in societies and a strategy for shifting responsibilities from the governments to citizens
