Our manifesto
Res publica's raison d'être
Res publica is a company with a mission. We have defined our raison d'être as well as the commitments and actions that materialize it.
For a fair and sustainable society,
we bring to life dialogues that are useful for the decisions that concern you.
The objectives of the Res publica mission
Pour cela, Res publica et ses collaboratrices et collaborateurs prennent les engagements suivants qui seront suivis et évalués par un Comité de mission et par un Organisme tiers indépendant :
Favoriser l’utilité des démarches de dialogue que nous accompagnons : assurer une mise en débat de qualité, animer des dialogues riches et ouverts, rendre compte complètement et loyalement de la parole des participant·es, garantir le droit de suite, accompagner les réponses des décideurs en favorisant l’évaluation des démarches et la valorisation de leurs résultats.
Assurer la participation de l’ensemble des parties prenantes concernées aux démarches de dialogue que nous accompagnons : assurer aux côtés de nos clients l’identification exhaustive des parties prenantes à associer, favoriser l’inclusivité des démarches en matière de mobilisation et d’animation, porter une attention particulière à aller vers les publics les plus éloignés de la participation citoyenne.
Accompagner les impératifs de transition écologique, de sobriété et de justice sociale : assumer notre responsabilité sociétale d’entreprise, limiter l’empreinte environnementale de notre activité, veiller au respect du droit à l’information et à la participation du public et à la prise en compte de la justice sociale dans les démarches de dialogue que nous accompagnons sur des projets et des politiques publiques, en particulier celles qui ont un impact sur l’environnement.
Développer la culture du dialogue et de la participation citoyenne en France et à l’étranger : partager nos savoir-faire, inscrire notre activité dans une démarche d’amélioration continue et critique des pratiques de dialogue par la conduite de réflexions en interne et à l’externe avec nos clients et nos partenaires.
Res publica's vision and convictions
The Res publica team is driven by the desire to develop, as far as possible, the practice of democracy on a daily basis in order to prepare a better life for all in a spirit of social justice: the conception, organization, facilitation and valorization of useful and effective dialogues is at the heart of their professional concerns.
Oursocieties are faced with numerous challenges that will determine the quality of our future: the ecological and solidarity-based transition, the growth or persistence of inequalities, climate change, the protection of biodiversity, the preservation of cultivated soils, the future of water resources, the quality of the air we breathe and the food we eat. Our health depends on both individual behavior and collective choices, which can have consequences for our quality of life and life expectancy.
In addition, the digital transition is exacerbating competition between companies, countries and individuals, while making the protection of personal data more difficult and individual freedoms more fragile. This is contributing to a mutation of work at a time when employees' multiple expectations are becoming an important element in companies' strategic thinking.
Ourability to collectively meet these challenges in the years ahead will influence the future organization of our society, the way we live together both in the city and at work. For while the future is fraught with threats, it also holds the promise of a changing world that will become more inclusive, fairer and more sustainable. This depends on the relevance and quality of the decisions we make today, in the public arena and in the workplace.
The quality of decisions depends on the quality of the processes that produce them. And it also determines the quality of our future lives: a good decision is one that has been prepared, discussed and adopted by those it concerns. A good decision is inclusive, facilitates behavioral change, creates harmony and unity, and takes into account all the people it concerns.
This isthe conviction of the members of Res publica.
Backed by these convictions, Res publica helps its customers to make the right decisions by enabling their stakeholders to contribute to the decisions that affect them.
