IPCE presents CivicSource, a web portal that hosts a wide range of civic engagement and policy information, learning tools, and opportunities to connect with civic engagement efforts.

 

CivicSource Features:

 

• Topical learning modules

A series of short, self-directed visual learning tools on basic policy, technology, or government-related issues.

• Research

• Current research presented in reader-friendly articles with a healthy use of visuals that connect the relevance and implications of our work to the lives of average citizens.

• Blogs

• Blog postings and contributions by IPCE staff, UIC faculty, leaders, and expert guest bloggers on important public policy and civic engagement topics. Blogs also cover events and current policy debates.

• Civic Engagement Events

• Information about forums, town halls, community meetings, and other public events related to civic engagement or policy. All IPCE and relevant UIC events will be posted on the portal, as well as information about city and neighborhood meetings and events.

• 'Find Answers' Tools

• Helpful tools that connect individuals with online e-Government services. Visitors may find answers to questions such as: "Who are my elected officials?", "Where can I find data relevant to my neighborhood?", or "How is policy made?"
