Presentation of the seminar in United Nations University Operating Unit on Policy-Driven Electronic Governance.
"From cables to artificial intelligence, from individualism to ecosystems: Digital Government in Latvia." 15.05.2018
Latvia is a compact and agile country of 2.9 million people, with two important natural resources – wood and innovation minded people – backed-up by a strong ICT capacity. Latvia is amongst the world leaders of internet speed and uptake of mobile internet, and features a rapidly growing ICT sector. Latvia has gone through times of enormous economic growth, making it one of the fastest developing economies in the EU. Apart from a period of ruthless austerity in 2008-2010, when GDP fell by a quarter, the time to grow has returned again. It is evident that every one of these phases have made a specific impact on government and e-Government development.
Digital government has been seen as a helpful instrument for recovery, growth, more efficient and effective government work and empowerment of citizens. It has been strategically applied to government efficiency, transparency, citizen participation and availability of public services, and now strategically positioned to expand national competitiveness. Currently, knowledge and information products and services play an important and increasing role in Latvia’s economy.
This presentation was made at the final workshop of the Application Programming interfaces APIs4DGov. The presentation is an overview overview of the APIs4DGov study, focussing on the following topics related to the API adoption in governments:
- The methodology adopted within the study
- The importance of the adoption
- The state of play (trends, cases and best practices)
- The internal (efficiency gains and open data access improvement) and external (fostering innovation, enablement of digital ecosystems and economic opportunities) benefits
- The costs (implementing a whole of government platform, reengineering existing systems towards APIs, cultural change) and challenges (adhere to legislation, improve the policy understanding and support)
- A proposed API framework for governments
- The thematic areas and technologies where the adoption of APIs can have a major impact
- The list of outputs of the project

Achieving Open Government Transparency, Participation and Collaboration through Business Process Management
In order to operate efficiently and participatively, ICT platforms for smart cities must support Open Government Data publishing. We are surrounded by data and information which often is only accessible to the administrations and institutions that collected and stored them, although they belong to everybody.
A key step in the path to enable Open Government Data publishing is the proper reengineering of processes where Government Data is created, modified and shared among administrations and institutions. Government Data should not just be shared across multiple systems: it should also be possible for everybody to process and analyze it. The availability of such Government Data access services, in addition to increasing Government transparency by increasing accountability to citizens, it helps businesses and civil society innovate and grow, (e.g. by building new applications based on Open Government Data), and engages citizens in improving public services.
In the first part of this session we will show how Open Government Transparency, Participation and Collaboration can be achieved through Business Process Management, and we will present the Smart Urbs e-Government Platform, built as part of PRISMA project (funded by the Italian Ministry of Education and Research through the “PON Smart Cities and Social Innovation” call) and currently being tested in the city of Catania for services related to mobility, social services and public spaces issues reporting.
In the second part of this session, we will give a practical demonstration of the Smart Urbs e-Government Platform through a business game where the course participants will have the opportunity to try the different tools of the Smart Urbs e-Government Platform.
This presentation focuses on the interaction between the strategic goals to foster more sustainable procurement and procurement digitalisation in the European Union. Exploratory thoughts shared at the Seminar of the Patrimonial Law Research Group of the Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona on 7 November 2019.
Presentation for the Architecture of Smart Cities course of Polimi, Piacenza (IMM designlab, prof. Massimo Tadi).
Notice: The majority of the material and findings presented in this presentation has been created within the European Commission study ‘APIs4DGov’. Thanks to the whole ’APIs4DGov extended team’ (Vaccari Lorenzino, Posada Monica, Boyd Mark, Gattwinkel Dietmar, Mavridis Dimitris, Smith Robin Sinclair, Santoro Mattia, Nativi Stefano, Medjaoui Mehdi, Reusa Isabelle, Switzer Shelby, Friis-Christensen Anders) and to many colleagues and external experts that contributed in various ways to the study.

MOBILITY track - Tuesday 28th
"The main vision of PriMaaS is to promote the integration of traditional collective transport modes with personal and innovative ones by creating equitable mobility services truly focused on citizens’ needs. Regional and national policy instruments should be adapted to promote a fully integrated intermodal approach between all transport services, namely by using data provided and gathered in real time about both travel demand and travel supply. At the same time, multiscale policy instruments should ensure that the more comfortable and affordable travel options for any individual to get from A to B has also minimum carbon levels."

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

The session will delve into critical regulatory updates, providing attendees with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate and comply with the evolving landscape of federal grant management.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the rationale behind the 2024 updates to the Uniform Guidance outlined in 2 CFR 200, and their implications for federal grant recipients.
- Identify the key changes and revisions introduced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the 2024 edition of 2 CFR 200.
- Gain proficiency in applying the updated regulations to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements and avoid potential audit findings.
