The Participatory Culture

Participatory culture refers to a society where individuals actively engage with and contribute to media, arts, and knowledge rather than just consuming content passively. It encourages collaboration, sharing, and creation among community members, such as through social media, fan communities, or open-source projects. This culture fosters a sense of empowerment, diversity of voices, and collective innovation, transforming users from passive viewers into active participants. Overall, it promotes a more interactive and inclusive environment for sharing ideas and expressing creativity.
