An initiative on the civic participation platform Manabalss.lv, calling for the platform itself to keep operating, has gathered more than 10,000 signatures.

"Mana balss" has long served as a website where any resident can submit and sign collective petitions on issues of public importance, which are then forwarded to responsible institutions, including the Saeima, Latvia's parliament. The platform has become one of the most widely used tools for Latvian residents to voice their positions and propose changes to legislation or other matters related to public administration.

The current initiative specifically seeks to secure the platform's continued existence going forward. The fact that more than 10,000 people have already signed it points to broad public support for preserving this participation tool.

The source report does not provide further details on the initiative's specific goals or next steps.
