===First Stage===
'''Public Agenda Setting'''
The first stage was the Public Agenda Setting. During this phase, all citizens were invited to submit issues of public concern to an online database. A list of the top 25 issues submitted was then compiled by the organizers. The public was then invited again to vote on these 25 issues to decide which were of the prime importance to discuss and solve. With the votes counted, the top three issues were: social security, immigration and the redistribution of wealth . These three issues would form the public agenda for the initiative.
