Answer» There is no democracy without the engagement of citizens. Engagement is thus both a right and a responsibility of citizens in establishing, DEVELOPING and sustaining democracy. Citizen engagement is not an abstraction; it takes tangible forms and serves particular purposes to improve people's’ lives.
