COCOSO is designed to address the pressing demand for meaningful and efficient participation of citizens involved in social services and policies: people with experience of using social services, practitioners, decision and policy-makers. Citizens experiencing welfare systems are often subject to one or several factors of inequality and vulnerability, which directly or indirectly hinders their participation
