What is remote democratic governance?

Remote Democratic Governance refers to the systems, processes, and practices that enable democratic decision-making and administration to occur outside of traditional in-person settings, often using digital tools and virtual platforms. This can involve remote voting, online public consultations, virtual council meetings, and digital transparency initiatives. The goal is to ensure that democratic principles such as participation, accountability, and transparency are upheld, even when officials, stakeholders, or citizens are not physically present. This approach has become increasingly important as technology advances and as remote work becomes more common in public administration.
