What is this consultation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This online consultation concerns the proposal for the establishment of the OGP Multistakeholder Forum in Greece, which was developed by GFOSS and submitted to the Ministry of Digital Governance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This consultation is carried out in the context of the European research project <strong>AI4Deliberation<\/strong> (HORIZON Europe, Grant Agreement No. 101178806), which develops and evaluates artificial intelligence tools to improve public consultations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Important clarification:<\/strong> This is <strong>pilot research consultation<\/strong>. It is not a substitute for a formal legislative consultation under Law 4622\/2019. The proposal being consulted is not a draft law, but a policy proposal that will be resubmitted to the Ministry of Digital Governance accompanied by the results of this consultation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Why it takes place<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Greece participates in the Open Government Partnership (OGP) but does not yet have an institutionalised Multilateral Forum \u2013 a permanent space for cooperation between government and civil society to co-create open government policies. The country is already under OGP Procedural Review due to this gap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The proposal being consulted builds on evidence-based international practices from countries such as Italy, Finland and Estonia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Who is invited to participate<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The consultation is open to all interested parties. It aims in particular at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Non-governmental organisations<\/strong> active in transparency, accountability, human rights and participatory democracy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Civil servants and executives<\/strong> Ministries, Regions, Municipalities and Independent Authorities<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Academics and researchers<\/strong> in the fields of digital governance, social and political sciences and public policy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Journalists<\/strong> and media representatives<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Technological communities<\/strong> Open Source and Open Data<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Youth organisations<\/strong> and vulnerable groups<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Any interested citizen<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. How the consultation works<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Format:<\/strong> Asynchronous online consultation modelled on opengov.gr \u2013 commentary per article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3-phase process:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Phase 1 \u2013 Preparation<\/strong> (May 2026 \u2013 early June 2026)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Suggestion and supporting material uploaded<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Invite participants through targeted channels<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Phase 2 \u2013 Consultation<\/strong> (9 June 2026 \u2013 10 July 2026 )<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Informative webinar 18\/6\/2026<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Asynchronous commentary on 7 articles + General Comments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Comments are published after moderation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AI4Deliberation Tool Test: summary, argument extraction, mitigation, gamification<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Phase 3 \u2014 Composition<\/strong> (10 July \u2013 end of July 2026)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Synthesis of contributions supported by artificial intelligence<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Final report (mapping arguments)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Send results: Participants, Ministry of Digital Governance, OGP Contact Point<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5.

Artificial intelligence tools in the consultation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The platform leverages pilot AI tools developed under AI4Deliberation.

You know when you see an AI result.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Human oversight:<\/strong> No AI tool makes decisions. The mitigation of comments, the synthesis of results and the final report are always done under human supervision.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Manual decision-making:<\/strong> Automated decision-making within the meaning of GDPR Article 22 shall not be used.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Comments are not evaluated:<\/strong> The tools do not rank, rate or rate feedback qualitatively. Each comment has equal weight.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>AI risks:<\/strong> AI tools may present errors (e.g. misclassification, incomplete summary). That is why human oversight is mandatory.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Right to contest:<\/strong> If you consider that an AI tool has mishandled your comment (e.g. incorrect mitigation), you can contact [admin@eellak.gr] for human review.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7.
