This paper focuses on digital participation of citizens in public affairs, as a way of citizen empowerment, and try to identify the factors that promote such participation. Methodologically, data were collected from a survey to 1183 Internet users, and applying a multiple linear regression analysis. The results show that about half of the population perceive that digital practices in the Network empower themselves, but with some nuances. On the other hand, citizens have more confidence in collective action with others like them that in the utility their actions may have with respect to public institutions. In addition a significant citizen participation in public affairs is observed through the Internet, especially among those who prove to be more digitally alphabetized and have higher expectations for these actions.
