From “coming out” to All Out


Meu Rio is redesigning the user interface
for civic participation in Rio de Janeiro.
We are a non-partisan democratic youth
movement. We create online tools to connect
citizens and ensure that they have a voice in
the decisions that are transforming the city.

Our Values We believe that increased participation by youth
and members of the emerging middle class in the
political process will help bring about greater
accountability and transparency.

We are non-partisan and independent. We don’t
accept money from government or political parties.

We believe that the internet can serve as a school
for a more robust democracy.

We are committed to open source sharing.
We value remix and reuse.

Evaluation Principles for Campaign Themes
▢ RIPE ! SALIENT
Is the issue in the news/being talked about? Is it something that has strong public support and a
groundswell of concern among our target audience?

▢ ACTIONABLE
Can Meu Rio or its members “do” something about the issue? Is there a concrete and plausible political,
social, or cultural action that can be taken to aﬀect change?

▢ POLITICAL/CULTURAL IMPACT
Meu Rio’s goal is to build a more participatory and open political culture in Rio. While not every
campaign needs to directly inﬂuence the political process, each campaign should have some short,
medium, or long term political objective or impact on behavioral/cultural change among the citizens of
Rio.

▢ COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE
Is this an issue or campaign where Meu Rio can take a leadership role while working with other partner
organizations working in the same space? Does Meu Rio have a comparative advantage because of our
member base, brand equity, and/or innovative use of technology?

▢ EARNED MEDIA/LIST GROWTH
Will running the campaign generate free earned media and/or promote Meu Rio membership growth?

Evaluation Principles for Campaign Tools Tactics
▢ CONNECTIVE
Does it relate to existing user behaviors and social dynamics? Does it bring the community tighter together or connect people
closer with their decision makers?

▢ PARTICIPATORY
Is it open-ended enough to invite participation but guided and usable enough to actually use?

▢ USER SERVICE
Does it have a clear theory of change? Does the experience inspire, delight, or motivate users?

▢ SCALABLE
Does it “work” (both technologically and compelling for users) for 5 users as well as it does for 5 million)?

▢ REUSABLE
Can it be reused/repurposed by Meu Rio for future campaigns and not just a one-oﬀ novelty?

▢ HACKABLE
Is it open source/open API? Can it be reappropriated by users/hackers in new, exciting, unexpected ways or used by other cities/
movements?

▢ AWESOME/INTANGIBLES
Is it “magical”? Compelling in an intuitive/emotional way? Does it have that certain “je ne sais quoi”?

QUESTIONS?
