The document describes Explorer, a statistical data visualization tool developed by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development to support development policy in Italy. Explorer allows users to interactively explore multiple indicators and their trends over time to analyze differences between regions and assess progress towards policy targets. It integrates data from various sources at the regional, sub-regional, and municipal levels. The Ministry has deployed two instances of Explorer using regional economic and public services data to facilitate open debate and evaluation of development programs. A demonstration showed Explorer's ability to tell stories with data and compare performance to waste management goals. Lessons indicated guidance is needed for non-technical users and active engagement is required to encourage story sharing.
Open Development Cambodia is an “Open Data” website, the first of its kind in mainland Southeast Asia. The global “Open Data” movement is based on the simple premise that data collected for public interest should be publicly available – without restrictions, and that information or “data” in the public domain should be freely available to everyone to use and republish as they wish, without restrictions.
The Circular Economy in Cities and Regions - OECD OECDregions
Today, cities demand almost two-thirds of global energy, produce up to 80% of greenhouse emissions and 50% of global waste. The circular economy can provide a policy response to cope with the above challenges, as a driver for economic growth, jobs and environmental quality.
Cities and regions have a key role to play as promoters, facilitators and enablers of circular economy. Adequate economic and governance conditions should be in place to unlock its potential.

0x01 - Newton's Third Law: Static vs. Dynamic AbusersOWASP Beja
f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.
About the Speaker
===============
Diogo Sousa, Engineering Manager @ Canonical
An opinionated individual with an interest in cryptography and its intersection with secure software development.
This presentation, created by Syed Faiz ul Hassan, explores the profound influence of media on public perception and behavior. It delves into the evolution of media from oral traditions to modern digital and social media platforms. Key topics include the role of media in information propagation, socialization, crisis awareness, globalization, and education. The presentation also examines media influence through agenda setting, propaganda, and manipulative techniques used by advertisers and marketers. Furthermore, it highlights the impact of surveillance enabled by media technologies on personal behavior and preferences. Through this comprehensive overview, the presentation aims to shed light on how media shapes collective consciousness and public opinion.
This presentation by Morris Kleiner (University of Minnesota), was made during the discussion “Competition and Regulation in Professions and Occupations” held at the Working Party No. 2 on Competition and Regulation on 10 June 2024. More papers and presentations on the topic can be found out at oe.cd/crps.

An example story
Lessons learnt
OUTLINE
3. South (8 regions)
• Population (2010): 21 millions
• Per capita GDP (2005-2009): 17,000 €
• Youth unemployment rate (2010): 39%
• Child care coverage (2008): 5%
• Recycled urban waste (2008): 15%
Centre-North (13 regions)
• Population (2010): 39 millions
• Per capita GDP (2005-2009): 30,000 €
• Youth unemployment rate (2010): 22%
• Child care coverage (2008): 17%
• Recycled urban waste (2008): 38%
ITALY: SOME FIGURES
Average GDP per capita in the South is 57% of that in the Centre-North
4. DEVELOPMENT POLICY
DEVELOPMENT POLICY
Development policy is aimed at reducing gaps among
territories using additional resources (in addition to ordinary
ones):
European structural funds (cofinanced by Member States)
Additional national resources
EC Member States must respect the “additionality rule”:
Contributions from the structural funds shall not replace public or
equivalent structural expenditure by a Member State
Italy has a longstanding gap between Southern and Northern
regions in infrastructures and public services provision.
Relies heavily on massive and timely datasets of territorial information
12. 1. Data availability
2. Data openness for a public debate
3. Visualization tools
AN OUTCOME-BASED (DEVELOPMENT) POLICY
REQUIRES:
eXplorer helps to meet requirements 2 and 3
13. MANY STEPS FOR DATA AVAILABILITY
• Formal agreements DPS-ISTAT to finance territorial data
production (co-funded by development policy itself).
• Regional data (TL2) on many different sectors:
• Regional Indicators Database to evaluate development policy
• Sub-regional data (TL3, and other territorial entities):
• Statistical Atlas of Municipalities (Atlante Statistico dei Comuni)
more than 8,000 statistical units
• data at Optimal Territorial Areas (ATO) level for water service
approx. 50 statistical units
• data at Health service districts (ASL) level more than 100
statistical units
• Special agreements with other data producers
• “Regional Public Accounts” project: DPS coordinates a
territorial network of regional entities that produce data on
public financial flows
14. WHY EXPLORER?
eXplorer facilitates analysis and debate on data and policy
Interactive exploration
of multiple indicators
Time animation
Stories: users can
contribute with their own
narratives and analyses
Integration with user data
An increased awareness among citizens can generate more
pressure towards the achievement of policy results

23. LESSONS LEARNT
Different skills for storytelling and
storyreading
Non-technical users need guidance (vislets
may help)
A call for stories may not be enough if not
supported by “push mode”
