• W2187058051 abstract "Executive Summary The report begins by describing why participation of the poor in policy-making is both challenging and important. The poor experience social exclusion more strongly, have access to fewer channels through which to exercise their rights, and meet with greater barriers to participation than other citizens. Not only does participation of the poor in policy-making imply their recognition as fully-fledged citizens and as being capable of contributing to the development of society ‐ it also contributes to designing more effective policies against poverty and social exclusion. The report argues that participation by the poor could be used as a benchmark against which government policy and initiatives to strengthen government-citizen relations may be evaluated ‐ those measures which prove successful in engaging the poor may well be valuable in fostering greater public participation on the part of all citizens. The report goes on to review the legal and institutional development of the Belgian welfare state and the status of public participation in social policy. It charts the emergence of a “rights-based” approach to welfare from the mid-1970s, which made establishment of conditions for human dignity a prime objective and called for the active participation of the poor in the design of policies and services. The report also describes how participation by the poor has been fostered in practice in Flanders. In particular through the establishment of a permanent consultative forum in 1989 (VICA ‐ Flemish Intersectoral Committee for Poverty Reduction) whose “theme groups” saw the active participation of the poor and their representative organisations. The important role of initiatives taken by local authorities and by the voluntary sector in overcoming social exclusion and poverty and ensuring effective participation of the poor in decision-making is also highlighted. The case study itself focuses on the engagement of the poor in preparing the 1994 General Report on Poverty in which the “dialogue method” was used for the first time. This method aims to provide people living in poverty with the opportunity, through the associations in which they meet and have their say, to actively participate in the discussion of particular themes and, ultimately, in the formulation of policy proposals. It takes place on two main levels: a social dialogue between the poorest people, their associations, and the representatives of local welfare organisations which identify key issues and draw up proposals, followed by a political dialogue between the poor and their associations, representatives of local welfare organisations and policy-makers. A number of steps have since been taken to institutionalise this form of dialogue between the key actors ‐ notably with the establishment of a Centre against Poverty, Social Insecurity and Social Exclusion in 1999. The case study identifies several major challenges to engaging the poor in policy-making at the local and national level, such as: establishing the conditions for dialogue (which requires both time and commitment); coping with diversity (as the poor are not a homogeneous group); and raising the capacity of the poor to participate (e.g. by encouraging self-organisation by the poor and ensuring that the issues 125" @default.
