One way is through digital platforms where people can vote on local issues. These platforms should be user-friendly and widely accessible to ensure everyone can participate.
We could also hold regular town hall meetings in different parts of Yorkshire. This would give residents a chance to voice their opinions and engage directly with local leaders.
Educational programs about the importance of civic engagement could help too. If people understand how their participation can lead to real change, they might be more motivated to get involved.
