Can Wetting The Bed Be Because Of A Std?

is civil society as an inspiration (Armin King)

What citizens want: civil society as an inspiration for policy and administration at the instance of the project Illingen 2030

policy is made not for institutions, political parties or organizations, not for corporations or unions, even for cities and communities, but for citizens. The citizens should therefore have a say not only, but also to shape and influence. This goal have now taken the classic actors of representative democracy in its program. Participation is established as a principle and as a process. The possibilities of direct Participation have been expanded throughout the country and local constitutions. This is a paradigm shift in German policy.
