" If people feel
they are part of the decision-making process they are much more likely to feel pride in their community and to take care of it,&lrquo; says Professor Curwell. " It's a very idealistic concept and one that is very dependent on supporting, harnessing and developing people's willingness to change.&lrquo;
By bringing together unconnected sources of information in one place, and making that place available to everyone, be they city planners, building developers, politicians, or individual citizens, the eAgora could support improved management of cities and help achieve long-term physical, social and economic sustainability.
