Presentation at IFIP EGOV 2016 Conference. September 5, 2016.
Abstract. The rhetoric of open government data (OGD) promises that data transparency will lead to multiple public benefits: economic and social innovation, civic participation, public-private collaboration, and public accountability. In reality much less has been accomplished in practice than advocates have hoped. OGD research to address this gap tends to fall into two streams – one that focuses on data publication and re-use for purposes of innovation, and one that views publication as a stimulus for civic participation and government accountability - with little attention to whether or how these two views interact. In this paper we use an ecosystem perspective to explore this question. Through an exploratory case study we show how two related cycles of influences can flow from open data publication. The first addresses transparency for innovation goals, the second addresses larger issues of data use for public engagement and greater government accountability. Together they help explain the potential and also the barriers to reaching both kinds of goals.

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.

Italy is the third largest
contributor to the EU budget
after Germany and France
Large regional disparities

4. An open government strategy on Cohesion Policy for:
• a more efficient and effective use of resources and
destination of funds consistent with people’s needs
• improve decision making and policy design, also by
increasing access to and quality of information
• increasing involvement of stakeholders and civic partners
• broadening the opportunities for analyses and evaluations
on relevant policy issues
• encouraging the creation of new tools and services
revolving around the availability of open data
5. • Profound awareness within administration of benefits of open
data (pre-existing examples)
• Political insight on benefits of transparency: not a challenge but
an opportunity
• Quick responsiveness of administration to political input
• A national unitary monitoring system (available since 2007)
A strong drive towards publication of open data, but
OpenCoesione is not just following the trend:
it is a major communication operation based on transparency that
calls for participation by citizens and aims at increasing the
effectiveness of cohesion policy.

• Stronger motivation for managing authorities to enhance

commitment to improve regularly quality of information

19. From transparency to
participation and collaboration
• Citizen engagement is essential for open government and
effective development, strengthening the quality of
policymaking and the “science” of service delivery with
improved social accountability
• It requires a committed and responsive government. There
is often little discussion about to how to design and implement
participatory processes that deliver their expected benefits
Availability of open data on public spending and ICT
innovations are working to successfully build transparency,
increase accountability and overcome a long history of mistrust
in many different development projects all around the world.
