Journalist Jasmijn Post states that more and more people are questioning goverment policy during the second wave of the corona crisis. In this edition of Brussels Explained, she will answer the question whether citizen participation could have strengthened public trust. During the first wave of the corona crisis ´the joined fight of all people against coronavirus´ was the dominant motto. But during the second wave public trust in government policy has diminished. Could citizen participation by means of apps or workshops have strengthened public trust? Can governments change this trend by focussing on citizen participation in the future course of the pandemic? deBuren, Curieus and The Bulletin joined hands with journalist Selma Franssen to organize an English edition of ´Moeilijke Dingen Makkelijk Uitgelegd´ with a focus on Brussels.
