Proces byl zahájen v říjnu 2019 na oddělení Evropské komise pro komunikaci a elektronickou demokracii ve Společném výzkumném středisku, což je vědecká a znalostní služba Evropské komise. Analýza potřeb konference a toho, které nástroje jim odpovídají, vedla k výběru open source nástroje Decidim pro jeho technickou vyspělost, širokou komunitu a přizpůsobivost.

Digitální platforma Decide Mérida byla příležitostí, která se otevřela jako nikdy před mechanismy účasti občanů na vypracování plánu rozvoje měst Mérida 2018-2021. Měli jsme více než 3000 občanských interakcí včetně návrhů, připomínek, návrhy a podporu, aby bylo dosaženo co největšího konsenzu o tom, co je nejlepší pro naše město. Bezpochyby bude platforma „Decide Mérida“ i nadále naším spojencem při vytváření participativní společnosti města Mérida.
