Project Sunagorik

About Sunagorik

Project Sunagorik, developed by Youth Notion, is a civic engagement platform designed to bridge the gap between the government and citizens in Bangladesh. It empowers users to report and resolve community issues efficiently through a user-friendly interface, voting systems, and data analysis. Key features include ASTRA, a real-time environmental monitoring system, a community directory, citizen journalism, and civic literacy programs. The platform aims to improve living conditions, enhance transparency, and promote accountability by fostering active citizen participation and immediate government intervention.

Why Sunagorik?

Bangladesh faces significant challenges in civic infrastructure, waste management, and environmental monitoring, compounded by limited communication between citizens and authorities. Sunagorik addresses these challenges by empowering citizens, enhancing government accountability, and promoting collaborative problem-solving. With features like ASTRA for real-time environmental monitoring, civic literacy programs, and citizen journalism, the project fosters transparency and data-driven decision-making.
