Right to be heard From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Right to be Heard) Jump to: navigation, search Right to be Heard is a pressure group originating in projects in the United Kingdom and India. It�s origins are closely connected to that of the Peals Research Centre in North-East England. Right to be Heard is made up of people from a variety of backgrounds who have participated inprocesses of participatory democracy since 2001 � particularly those from communities that have undergone marginalization in the past. It lists among its aims: 1. to provide opportunities for participants in processes such as citizens� juries, to work on an equal footing with facilitators of these initiatives in initiatives to achieve greater social justice by increasing the accountability of decision-makers. 2. To foster alternative principles of participation (often called �public engagement�) from those that currently dominate. Good working practices are showcased and, if necessary, mobilised to convince policy-makers of their value. The processes in which Right to be Heard members have taken part include: 1. Tyneside 'Do-it-yourself' jury (2002)� Twenty five community members from different age groups drew up an agenda to shake up the way the over 50s are treated by the health and social services, particularly relating to the balance between introducing new technologies and improving social care. 2. Blackburn and Darwen jury (2004) � Twenty people from diverse ethno-cultural backgrounds came together and prioritised illegal drugs, alcohol and crime as major problems
