The application that I chose for thin participation is SeeClickFix. This is an online platform for people to report non-emergency issues in their neighborhood for the local government to look into the matter and respond accordingly. It helps people to communicate with the local government leaders as well as municipalities easily by reporting issues that need attention like blockage of drainage, lack of basic amenities, burglary issues, electricity issues, traffic problems, etc. it also allows people to give feedback for the solutions provided by the authority as well as rate the services of the government.
