3 1: Concept for the consultation in Croatia (in English) The consultation in Croatia took place on 23 rd September We decided to organise one consultation. Our target groups were citizens, stakeholders and policy-makers. These target groups were chosen due to the necessity of voicing put and hearing opinions of various relevant actors on different levels/sides of the decision making process of public policies. Involvement of the citizens was considered crucial, since citizens are the ones who can most accurately detect challenges at the local level and can add to the discussion from their perspective. Stakeholders were invited in order to contribute to the debate from the position of the engaged perspective. Policy-makers were chosen in order to get their feedback on a certain programmes, but also that they can better understand perspectives of the citizens and the stakeholders through discussion among them. We recruited the participants through our channels of communication. Participants were invited to participate through our mailing lists, Facebook page, web page and e- newsletter. Some of the participants were also recruited through the contacts of the participants of the first consultation. Several participants were those who participated at National workshop. Originally, we recruited 40 participants. One from Zagreb get sick, and two from Split could not come as a child of one of them got sick. Two participants from Zagreb could not come due to work obligations at the last moment. We had at the end 35 participants: five (5) decision makers, fifteen (15) citizens (5 of them elderly) and fifteen stakeholders, coming from CSOs and different institutions. We prepared a material in Croatian for participants that we send to those registered. We send them a leaflet and Research Programme Scenarios, but added in the beginning details about CIMULACT. We also prepared the Guidelines for facilitators in Croatian language, as well as power point presentation for the workshop. We are glad to report that we did not experience any difficulties due to thorough preparation. We used the Method 3 from the toolkit. Method 3 was chosen since it was considered the method best suited for the stimulation of the debate between participants with different views on the problem and thus it allows participants from different target groups to be acquainted with the perspective of another target group which can greatly facilitate the process of the dialogue creation regarding the certain research programme scenario. 1

4 2: Programme for the consultation (in English) Welcoming participants Presentation of the consultation purpose, objectives and the expected outcomes Get to know each other: ice breaker Overview of the 8 research scenarios and selecting 5 for more detailed discussion Coffee break World Café tour, round 1& Lunch break World Café tour Summary of the results Finalization of the template Coffee break Exhibition of the 5 enriched research topics and then prioritization Friendly closing session: Drinks and feedback on the day Joint dinner, Restaurant Pri Zvoncu We have decided to organise a joint dinner for most of the participants (some from other places had to left earlier). This contributed to better bonding and was appreciated by those who were there, as a rcognition of their effort and good will to participate. All participants get a small gift (bag, note-book, pencil). 3: Selected research programme scenarios (in English) We have chosen the following research programme scenarios for our national consultation: - 2a Basic universal income so nobody is left behind - 2b Community building development - 2c Evidence-based community building - 3a Data for all share the power of data - 3b Snakes and Ladders. Connecting scales of issues and actors - 3c The transparency toolbox

5 - 3d Empowered citizens - 6c Here, there and everywhere We have chosen the first three programme scenarios (2a Basic universal income so nobody is left behind, 2b Community building development and 2c Evidence-based community building) from the field 'Unity and Cohesion', because many of our national visions were connected with social needs reaching social cohesion and unity. Also, our representative was a table moderator for that topic in Milan. The further four programme scenarios (3a Data for all share the power of data, 3b Snakes and ladders Connecting scales of issues and actors, 3c The transparency toolbox and 3d Empowered citizens) from the field 'Citizenship awareness and participation' were chosen because they are related to our organization s mission. Our work and projects are dedicated to citizen engagement and development of their capabilities for active participation in community development. The last programme scenario (6c Here there and everywhere) was taken up during the deliberation phase of the assignment of the programme scenarios. Participants chose to enrich further five programme scenarios: - 2b Community building development - 2c Evidence-based community building - 3a Data for all share the power of data - 3d Empowered citizens - 6c Here, there and everywhere The prioritization exercise was carried out in following manner: - Posters that were prepared in advance in Croatian language were put on the wall in the hall where the consultation was carried out - Each participant received five stickers with the instruction to glue one sticker to the programme scenario they consider the most important - After that, the number of votes / stickers was counted and prioritized programme scenarios emerged. The posters with chosen research programme scenarios (as they were done in Milan), were prepared and put on the wall, together with Research programme aspiration. All documents and tables were translated to Croatian language, so that participants could easily read and understand the content. Next to the each topic a paper was put for the stickers. The participants were invited to look at exhibited posters and to put the stickers next to the topic that they consider important. Please, see the pictures bellow:

6 4: Croatia: The enriched research programme scenarios (in English) Overview of the prioritized research programme scenarios The research programme scenarios were prioritized, as shown below. The number of votes that each scenario got is shown in brackets. - 2b Community building development [21] - 2c Evidence-based community building [20] - 3a Data for all share the power of data [21] - 3d Empowered citizens [22] - 6c Here, there and everywhere [20]

7 Further in the text, for the each of the prioritised scenarios, the answers to the five mandatory questions are presented. 2b Community building development 1. What challenge(s) does this research question address? - Encouragement of social activism - Citizens' participation - Citizens' solidarity - Decentralization of state through the engagement of local communities, using new technologies and innovative methods (as a tool for bonding, not separation) - Decentralisation of providing public services, which is important for future development 2.

Također, naša predstavnica bila je moderator za stolom koji se bavio tom temom u Milanu. Sljedeća četiri scenarija programa istraživanja (3a Podaci za sve - Dijeliti moć podataka, 3b "Zmije i ljestve" - Povezivanje različitih pitanja i razina dionika, 3c Alati za veću transparentnost i 3d Osnaženi građani) iz područja 'Svijest i sudjelovanje građana' bili su izabrani jer su povezani s misijom naše organizacije. Naš rad i projekti posvećeni su aktivaciji građana i razvoju njihovih sposobnosti za aktivno sudjelovanje u razvoju zajednice. Posljednji scenarij programa istraživanja (6c Tu tamo i svugdje) preuzet je tijekom faze dogovora dodjele scenarija programa između projektnih partnera. Sudionici su odlučili obogatiti sljedećih pet scenarija programa istraživanja: - 2b Razvoj putem jačanja lokalnih zajednica - 2c Izgradnja zajednice na temelju dokaza - 3a Podaci za sve - Dijeliti moć podataka - 3d Osnaženi građani - 6c Tu, tamo i svugdje

14 Vježba prioritizacije bila je izvedena na sljedeći način: na zid dvorane u kojoj su se održavale konzultacije su bili postavljeni posteri sa scenarijima programa istraživanja (kako su bili napravljeni u Milanu), zajedno s težnjama istraživačkih programa. Svi dokumenti i tablice su bili prevedeni na hrvatski jezik, kako bi sudionici lakše iščitali i razumijeli sadržaj. Kraj svake teme je postavljen prazan papir za ljepljenje naljepnica. Sudionici su bili pozvani da pregledaju pažljivo izložene postere te da stave po jednu od pet naljepnicu uz temu koju smatraju važnom. Nakon toga, izbrojali smo broj glasova u formi naljepnica, iz čega su postali razvidni prioritizirani scenariji programa. Molimo, pogledajte slike postavljene niže u tekstu:

15 6: Croatia: The enriched research programme scenarios (national language) Svaki scenarij istraživačkog programa je priotiziran, kako je niže prikazano.
