This document outlines a Government 2.0 Action Plan for the Victorian Public Service with the goal of increasing citizen engagement, transparency, and capability through the use of new technologies. The plan focuses on 4 key areas: 1) Driving adoption in government agencies, 2) Engaging citizens, 3) Opening up government data and information, and 4) Building workforce capabilities. It includes 14 initiatives such as developing leadership projects in each agency, establishing an inter-agency task force, providing guidance on privacy and records management, and creating opportunities for citizens to participate in policy development and access to public records. The overall aim is to transform how government works by becoming more collaborative, open and centered around citizens' needs.

Open Data and Transparency may be the most powerful levers of 21st century public policy. They present multiple opportunities offering benefit to the public sector, individuals, businesses and the UK as a whole. Open Data enables accountability; it improves outcomes and productivity in key services through informed comparison; it transforms social relationships – empowering individuals and communities; and it drives dynamic economic growth.
One story indicates how open data and transparency can help to transform a service: Five years ago, Sir Bruce Keogh, then a cardiac surgeon in Birmingham, convinced his fellow cardiac surgeons to publish their individual patient mortality rates. Five years later, death rates have fallen. Sir Keogh’s work demonstrates how transparency compliments the work of our public service professionals, improves public service quality and performance, and saves lives.
But making data open is not enough, we will also establish mechanisms to promote and collate feedback from those actually using the data. And we will use this feedback to improve our services and ensure they respond to real needs.
The UK Government new Transparency Strategy: “Making Open Data Real” was published on 4th August and is open for public consultation until 27 October 2011 at www.data.gov.uk/openda.... This, together with the UK’s existing strong record on Transparency and Open Data, means that our focus will fall on the Open Government Partnership grand challenges of:
* Improving Public Services; and
* More Effectively Managing Public Resources.
We will consult publicly on this country action plan primarily via existing fora, including the Public Sector Transparency Board; the Local Public Data Panel and the Transparency Sector Boards that are currently being established. These bodies already advise the Government on wider transparency and Open Data issues. In addition, we will also convene and consult with a wider group of stakeholders to consider the country plan specifically.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

Introduction
Government 2.0 involves direct citizen engagement in conversations about government
services and public policy through open access to public sector information and new
Internet based technologies. It also encapsulates a way of working that is underpinned
by collaboration, openness and engagement.
The application of the underlying principles and approaches of Web 2.0 are redefining
how people communicate and are transforming the web into a platform of participation
and co-production. This transformation extends to the public sector where Web 2.0 tools
can deepen democratic processes through participation; support policy development
through open consultation; and tailor the delivery of services to meet citizens’ needs for
personalisation and choice.
This Government 2.0 Action Plan provides the foundation for a whole of Victorian Public
Service approach to Government 2.0. It recognises that new approaches, processes and
technologies such as social media, wikis, and blogs can put the citizen at the centre in a
more open and collaborative relationship with government. It also means a shift in how
we work, with an increased emphasis on transparency and collaboration.
There are already pockets of innovative Government 2.0 practice in the VPS, ranging from
the use of Twitter to keep the public informed during emergencies through to using Facebook
to bring together small business owners and prospective owners for networking and
information sharing. The Victorian Government has also committed to open access to public
sector information in its response to the 2009 Parliamentary Inquiry into Improving Access to
Victorian Public Sector Information and Data. Opening up public sector data and information is a
major opportunity to increase engagement with the community and realise a range of social
and economic benefits.
The Government 2.0 Action Plan focuses on the following priority areas:
1. Driving adoption in the VPS > Leadership
2. Engaging communities and citizens > Participation
3. Opening up government > Transparency
4. Building capability > Performance
5. > 3
There are 14 initiatives under these four action areas, aimed at engaging and empowering
citizens, making government more transparent and improving government capability. Our
approach to implementation is think big, start small and scale fast.
In the spirit of collaboration and co-production, the Action Plan was developed through
extensive consultation and an open wiki process. It sits alongside the VPS Innovation Action
Plan and both Plans represent our commitment to developing a leading edge Victorian Public
Service that delivers better outcomes for the Victorian community.
The Government 2.0 Action Plan will continue to develop as we harness the ideas and energy
already evident in the Victorian Public Service.

government 4
Four action areas
The Government 2.0 Action Plan provides a systematic approach to the use of Web 2.0
applications and tools such as wikis, blogs, and social networking sites to engage with
citizens, develop policy and deliver services.
Research has found that usage of social media and social networking sites has increased
with 45% of Australians reporting regular use, up from 38% in 2008. This growth is across all
age groups although there are differences in patterns and type of use between age groups.
For example, older Australians are now responsible for expanding the reach of online social
networking, indicating that Web 2.0 is not just a Gen Y phenomenon. There has also been a
significant increase in use of the Internet to interact with government and a corresponding
reduction in traditional methods of communication, such as by mail or in-person.
All of this points to social media becoming part of citizens’ online activity. The Government
2.0 Action Plan seeks to leverage the opportunities of Web 2.0 in opening up government
and providing stronger citizen engagement. At the same time, the Plan seeks to proactively
manage risk and build capability.
The Action Plan focuses on four key areas:
1. Driving adoption in the VPS > Leadership
›› providing strong leadership and addressing whole of government issues to drive
adoption in the VPS.
2. Engaging communities and citizens > Participation
›› using Government 2.0 initiatives to put citizens at the centre and provide opportunities
for co-design, co-production and co-delivery.
3. Opening up government > Transparency
›› making government more open and transparent through the release of public sector
data and information.
4. Building capability > Performance
›› managing risk and skilling up the VPS workforce in a digital age.
Each action area has a suite of initiatives which are outlined overleaf.
7. > 5
initia
Government 2.0 Action Plan Initiatives
1. Driving adoption in the VPS
1.1 Department leadership projects: each department to implement a
Government 2.0 project by 30 June 2011.

8. government 6
1. Driving adoption in the VPS
1.1 Department Leadership Projects
Every VPS department will undertake at least one Government 2.0 project by 30 June 2011,
aimed at opening up data, making operations more transparent or expanding opportunities
for citizen engagement. Collectively, these projects will contribute to a more transparent,
collaborative and participatory public service.
1.2 Whole of Government Gov 2.0 Taskforce
A whole of Government Taskforce will be established to advocate for and broker Gov 2.0
opportunities in the VPS. The group will be responsible for:
›› brokering opportunities in the VPS
›› brokering relationships with other sectors
›› monitoring the implementation of the Action Plan
›› reporting on progress to the State Coordination and Management Council.
The Taskforce will comprise a representative from all departments, ensuring a whole of
government perspective. The Taskforce will also provide a forum for testing ideas, sharing
good practice and exchanging lessons learned.
1.3 Privacy and Records Guidance
Privacy
Privacy protection is an important right to safeguard when using Web 2.0 technologies. The
Department of Justice together with the Department of Premier and Cabinet will consult with
the Office of the Victorian Privacy Commissioner to provide high level overarching guidance
regarding the privacy issues raised by Government 2.0. Individual departments and agencies
will devolve this guidance into their respective privacy policies procedures and privacy
statements on websites.
Records Management
The use of Web 2.0 technologies will also generate new types of electronic public records
such as tweets, blogs and wikis which require specific technical standards for their
management and keeping.
9. > 7
The standards set by the Public Record Office Victoria (PROV) for the efficient management
of public records will apply to electronic records created as a result of Government 2.0
initiatives and activities engaged in by government departments and agencies. PROV will
provide formal policy guidance to confirm that the existing standards apply to Government 2.0
initiatives, including policy guidance on the types of records that may need to be created, who
is responsible for creating them, and when and how they should be created. This policy advice
will be embedded in the PROV Record Capture standard and associated specifications.
1.4 Social Media Guidance
In using social media, Victorian public servants need to maintain the same high standards of
conduct and ethical behaviour that are essential to the relationship between the public sector
and the government, the public sector and the community, and between those who work in
the public sector.
However social media has particular characteristics that need further consideration.
This includes the amplifying nature of social media where information and views can be
spread quickly and widely. Social media also demands real time engagement, so forms
of authorisation that apply to traditional communications do not translate easily in their
application where fast approval is required. Additionally, social media is more than just a tool
for communication and engagement with the public. It can be used to develop and deliver
policy. As such it can be used by both policy officers and communications officers alike in the
performance of their duties.
The Public Sector Standards Commissioner will issue Guidance for Use of Social Media
in the Victorian Public Sector. This guidance will be high level and principles based.
Departments and agencies will review and amend their various policies to devolve these
principles in their departments.
SPOTLIGHT: New Media Group, New Media Approach
Understanding the practical application of Web 2.0 to the way government communicates
was the impetus for the creation of a whole of Victorian Government New Media Group in
mid 2008.
The Group was established to provide guidance to public servants on rapidly developing
new media tools and practices and also provide a reference point for knowledge sharing
across the VPS.
The New Media Group has helped to drive recognition at all levels of government about
the role of Gov 2.0. The Group commissioned research in 2009 for a Digital Media Strategy
and this research was instrumental in the development of the Government 2.0 Action
Plan. It also resulted in a series of tools and templates, guidelines and check lists for new
media participation. In doing so, the New Media Group has helped to stimulate Web 2.0
initiatives, encouraged the development of new skills and strengthened support for a Gov
2.0 culture of innovation within government agencies.
The New Media Group now has 100 members from across government and meets
regularly to feature new developments and foster continuous learning and the sharing
of practice. It remains open to new participants and is further aided by the creation of an
online Community of Practice within VPS Hub, the whole of government intranet.

2. Engaging communities and citizens
2.1 Have Your Say
Have Your Say is a website that will promote online discussion between citizens and
government and act as a forum for consultations about government programs and services.
Using a suite of the latest Web 2.0 tools, Have Your Say will be available for all Victorian
government departments and agencies to use and host blogs, forums and polls. The
availability of one consultation entry point will improve access for citizens to participate and
have their say.
Additionally, agencies will be supported through the Government 2.0 toolbox to use forums
already active in the relevant policy areas and to develop ways to learn from, and engage with
existing conversations. This will widen the mix and range of ideas and insights on issues and
interests.
2.2 Public Records 2.0
The Public Record Office Victoria (PROV) will create Web-2.0 spaces for activities, material
and projects to enable community participation in describing and accessing the State’s
records. This will be aligned to the particular needs of specific interest groups. PROV will
also develop an online volunteer program to engage volunteers in online projects to improve
access to the State’s records.
2.3 Regulatory Governance Wiki
Over the last decade there have been many Victorian and other Government inquiries and
reports which have dealt with governance and operation of regulators. Identifying relevant
reports, and the key issues they address, is time consuming and inhibits knowledge sharing
including learning from past experience. A regulatory governance wiki will be created as an
accessible online repository of publicly available information about improving the operational
performance of regulators. The wiki will provide a collaborative platform for sharing
knowledge and good practice about regulatory performance.
2.4 Citizen Centric Services
Departments across the VPS are making space for citizens within their traditional policy
creation and service delivery models. The Department of Health is looking at the use of blogs
and wikis to reach more citizens with crucial health information and, importantly, benefit from
the collective experience and wisdom of all health services users. Similarly, the Department
of Justice is seeking to harness the usability and personalisation of Web 2.0 to ensure that
Victorians are ready to meet the summer bushfire season with the development of FireReady
iPhone and Facebook applications.

These initiatives, and others like them, seek to create more targeted and effective government
policy and services by directly including citizens.
SPOTLIGHT: A DiVine website
DiVine is the first online community written by and for people with a disability in Australia.
It sets new standards for accessibility and inclusion. DiVine aims to inform, engage and
entertain people with a disability. It is a vibrant community that encourages participation
and a sense of belonging.
DiVine was developed by the Office for Disability in the Department of Planning and
Community Development after extensive consultation with people with a disability, who
now represent 20 per cent of all Victorians.
All articles on the DiVine website are written by people with a disability. Many
contributions have come from the wider community. Visitors to the website can submit
articles for possible publication, post comments or vote in online polls.
The extensive content across range of topics demonstrates a high level of community
engagement. The site harnesses the existing skills and knowledge of the community to
share with others, as well as directly and indirectly assisting individuals with a disability to
reach their potential.
DiVine also serves as a communication channel for the Victorian Government to
publicise key projects and initiatives of interest to people with a disability. It provides links
to existing online resources that provide disability and health information, as well as
government sites frequently used by people with a disability. DiVine uses technology to
help achieve a more consultative, participatory and transparent government, encouraging
discussion and feedback about government initiatives.

SPOTLIGHT: Better Health Channel, Best in Breed
The Better Health Channel (BHC), the most popular consumer health site in Australia,
out performs its commercial rivals in a crowded online health market place. As Victoria’s
Department of Health (DH) consumer health site, BHC consistently leads in the ranks of
most visited Victorian government websites with 14 million visits each year.
Building on BHC’s trusted brand and strong presence, the e-services team at DH is
investigating ways to develop BHC as a platform for Health 2.0. The development of a
strong business and policy case has been undertaken centreing on supporting citizens
to take an active role in managing their own and their family’s health and wellbeing. A
Health 2.0 enabled BHC has the potential to integrate health promotion into people’s day
to day lives as well as helping people live better with chronic illness. With the incidence of
chronic disease on the rise, over the long term a Health 2.0 BHC has the potential to help
people make more informed decisions about their own health.
The BHC Health 2.0 platform will be user centric and focused on individual user created
content and a number of Web 2.0 applications for BHC are proposed to support citizens
to establish and maintain healthy behaviours and lifestyles. These range from apps for
mobile phones with reminders about medical appointments, to aggregating and pushing
out health information on topics of an individual’s choosing, to sharing health information
privately within a family, to finding peer support groups, to asking a recognised expert
via video streaming and blogging, to transparently sharing with citizens medicine and
clinician guides that usually only doctors see. In time BHC can engage with citizens in
developing health policy.
People are highly motivated about their own health and the health of their families. They
are becoming more sophisticated and knowledgeable as consumers of health services.
The demand for credible, independent health information from a trusted source is
growing. The transformation of the BHC to Health 2.0 will be able to provide Victorian
citizens with new and improved ways of managing their own health, as well as the health
of the people they care for.

3. Opening up government
3.1 VPS Hack Days
Hack events are where developers, designers and people with ideas gather to develop web
and mobile applications. Hack days recognise that many cutting edge ideas come from
opening up boundaries and working across portfolios and areas of specialisation. They are
underpinned by a philosophy of openness, sharing of ideas and collaboration.
Following the success of the inaugural VPS Hack day in February 2010, the event will be held
every six months, opening up public sector data to teams across the VPS and the local ICT
industry to develop new applications and uses.
3.2 data.vic.gov.au
The beta site, data.vic.gov.au, was initially developed to support the Premier’s App My
State competition. It is the online access point for the Victorian public sector information
where a variety of datasets in different formats are available for use and re-use. After its
beta development and release, the data.vic.gov.au website will move to full roll out with
departments providing an expanded range of current datasets.
3.3 Information Management Framework
If freely available, public sector information (PSI) can drive innovation and new services
to citizens and business. Open access to PSI provides opportunities for the Victorian
Government to increase its engagement with the community and to realise a range of
social and economic benefits.
In responding to the Parliamentary Inquiry into Improving Access to Victorian Public Sector
Information and Data, the Victorian Government has committed to improving access to PSI.
The Victorian Government supports the release of PSI for re-use with the expectation it will
lead to increased commercial activity, provide primary data to researchers in a wide range of
disciplines, and increase the transparency of government in Victoria.
As well as a data directory such as data.vic.gov.au, making data publicly available also
requires an Information Management Framework. The Victorian Government has committed
to the development of a comprehensive Information Management Framework for sharing
public sector information. The development of this framework is being oversighted jointly
by Departments of Premier and Cabinet, Treasury and Finance and Innovation, Industry and
Regional Development.
While the Information Management Framework will be essential to improving the quality and
impact of information access, the framework will be developed in parallel to making as much
public data open and accessible as quickly as possible.

engageSPOTLIGHT: VPS Hack Day, Hacked to the Rafters
Get some people who don’t normally work together in a room, give them some data,
allow them to collaborate and explore different ways of working and you’ve got the
inaugural VPS Hack Day. The event was held in February 2010 to coincide with the launch
of the Premier’s App My State competition that made public sector information available
to the public to build mobile and web applications of benefit to Victorians.
Usually web development in government follows the well-worn path of long and
linear processes. In contrast, Hack Day got cut through in a few hours with six teams
brainstorming ideas of how to mash up government data to benefit citizens. The quality
of the ideas was so impressive the external judges were hard pressed to pick just one
winner so jointly awarded the top prize to two teams, one runner up and an honourable
mention.
VPS Hack Day showcased the creativity and agility of the VPS in developing ideas that can
lead to excellent results. Here’s a snapshot of what the teams devised:
Community Heritage Listings Map: a mapping service to locate heritage listing buildings
in Victoria (joint winner)
Your Victoria, Your Budget: an online postcode-searchable directory of government
infrastructure (joint winner)
AudioWell: an online directory of government podcasts (runner up)
Carbon Net: An online service to match carbon emitters with carbon sinks and carbon
emission savings tools (honourable mention)
Bloody Oath: an improved search system for legislation
Trancyle: a user rated planner for people combining public transport and bike riding

4. Building capability
4.1 Managing Risk
Government 2.0 and the application of Web 2.0 collaborative and open-source principles
to the practices and processes of government requires a shift in mindset. It means moving
from rigid, hierarchical and input oriented processes where the community is a spectator
to a networked and collaborative approach with a focus on outcomes and the community
as participant. This is fundamentally the value of Government 2.0 which offers significant
opportunities to improve the quality and impact of policy, programs and services.
It also involves risks which need to be realistically managed, such as the inclusion of citizens
as co-producers and government providing open access to data. The scale and speed of
the technology also allows for greater interactions in real time and raises the potential for
reputational and other business risk. However the adoption of previous on-line technologies
and e-government initiatives demonstrates that the risks are manageable.
The Victorian Managed Insurance Authority (VMIA), the risk management advisor to the State
of Victoria, will host a roundtable on Social Media – What’s the Risk?, examining the risks for
government in using social media. Following the roundtable, VMIA will prepare an occasional
paper showcasing the themes and learnings from the roundtable and the outcomes will
inform future work on risk management for social media.
4.2 Government 2.0 Toolbox
A range of resources, toolkits and templates will be developed to support the uptake of
Government 2.0 in the VPS. This includes a social media primer, risk management toolkit,
sample business cases and strategies, and evaluation guides.
A business case will be undertaken to examine the feasibility of developing a one stop social
media portal with freely available apps including analytics, blogs, challenges, social networks
and wikis.
4.3 Sharing ideas and best practice
Seminars and workshops will be held to bring together people with common interests
to share information, build knowledge, develop expertise and share best practice.
Case studies of Victorian initiatives will be developed and shared on platforms such as
the Government 2.0 – Best Practices Wiki. Connections will be developed with other
jurisdictions through platforms such as the Commonwealth’s AGIMO blog and GovLoop,
the Social Network for Government.

SPOTLIGHT: Department of Justice, Just Making Gov 2.0 Happen
With nearly 7,000 staff, the Department of Justice has more than 50 business units
and service agencies united in a common purpose of achieving a safe and just Victoria.
The Justice portfolio is diverse and far reaching into the day to day lives of citizens. It
spans tribunals and agencies to protect citizens’ rights, emergency services, police and
prosecution functions, the court system, prison and community corrections services,
racing and gaming policy and legal advice to government.
With such broad ranging activities, it is no surprise that Justice is at the forefront in
applying Gov 2.0 initiatives to engage with citizens, deliver services and develop policy.
Cameras Cut Crashes, Enough (campaign to stop family violence) and Problem Gambling
are to name a few.
Justice has supported its Gov 2.0 strategy by building and embedding internal capability
into day to day practice. It has done this through implementing a suite of complementary
initiatives, including:
›› As part of the VPS Innovation Festival, holding an event called Exploring Gov 2.0 to
hear from leading Australian experts on the challenges and opportunities of Gov 2.0.
›› Webcasting Inside Report, a multi-media internal news report for employees.
Producing the report is outside normal responsibilities, so staff with no previous film
making skills have now acquired these skills. The report provides another channel for
internal communication and is more engaging that RRS feeds and static homepages.
›› Providing online writing skills sessions for content creators to learn to write for an
internet user. The training itself is being delivered online.
›› Ignite training to teach fast and effective communication in a time constrained format.
›› Using Yammer internally for staff to learn to communicate in 140 words or less and
to experiment in a low risk environment to see what tags work and what types of
messages and content get responses.
›› Using vps Hub, the whole of government social media intranet, to conduct a wiki,
form groups to collaborate and share information and resources.
›› Developing practical social media guidelines and policies.
Through its initiatives and its internal capacity building, Justice is making Gov 2.0 happen.

measure
Just as implementation of Government 2.0 initiatives in the VPS will be an iterative process,
so too will be the approach to performance measurement. A performance measurement
framework will be developed that is both flexible and diverse so that it can respond to lessons
learned from the implementation of initiatives over time as well as cater for the wide array of
initiatives and emerging technologies.
The development of the framework will use a Government 2.0 approach and crowd source
ideas and suggestions from within the Victorian Public Service as well as opening up the
discussion to external contributors. This will also include identifying approaches to evaluation.
The framework will link to the key values of Leadership, Participation, Transparency and
Performance and will include both lead and lag indictors. It will also consider a matrix of
factors such as:
›› productivity and efficiency gains inside and outside of government
›› the level of citizen participation and satisfaction
›› the extent of use and reuse of public sector information
›› the generation of new ideas and innovations in the public service.

Appendix 2:Web 2.0 Glossary
Blog: a website with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material
such as graphics or video, displayed in reverse-chronological order (most recent first).
Readers are typically free to comment on the content of the blog, known as ‘posts’, and often
subscribe to blogs via an RSS feed (see below).
Crowd-sourcing: taking the tasks commonly conducted by a certain group (government,
business etc) and outsourcing them to a group of people or community through an open call
for contributions. Web 2.0 communications technologies can be used to leverage the efforts
and ideas of large masses of potential collaborators.
Data mashup: the combination of data from two or more previously unconnected data
sources to provide new context and meaning to the information. An example of data mashing
would be combining crime statistics with maps to visually depict incidences of crime across
geographical areas.
Facebook: a global social networking website in which users create profiles and exchange
text, images and links with friends, family and community members. Users can join networks
based on location, workplace or educational facility and can join ‘groups’ on particular themes
of interest, coordinate events and maintain a profile of themselves.
Flickr: an image and video hosting website and online community. The site allows for posting
of images and video, as well as user comment on that content. The site is used by many
bloggers and twitter users to store images which are then embedded or linked to in their posts.
RSS: a method of publication of frequently updated online content, such as blog entries or
news headlines. An RSS feed typically includes full or summarised text as well as metadata
such as publishing dates and authorship. RSS feeds are read using aggregators, such as
Google Reader and browser-inbuilt RSS readers.
Twitter: a free social networking and micro-communications site that facilitates the online
publication of text messages up to 140 characters in length. Updates, known as ‘tweets’, are
delivered to a user’s ‘followers’ in real time. Twitter is used by individuals such as political
commentator, Laurie Oakes, and organisations such as The New York Times.
Yammer: a simple real-time communication tool for use within organisations, enabling
employees to connect and share at work. Only individuals with the same email domain
(eg .vic.gov.au) can join a given network.
YouTube: a video sharing website where users can upload, view and comment on videos
free of charge.
crowdsourcing
22. government 20
Wiki: a website (or collection of linked websites) that is freely contributed to, altered and
edited by a number of users. Wikipedia is an example of a large-scale application of the Wiki
principle.
Viral: something is virally spread on the internet, or ‘goes viral’, if it is spread widely across
online media sources through posting and reposting by ordinary people, as opposed to a
direct and continued effort by the information source. Many private corporations utilise this
online form of word-of-mouth to advertise their products through viral marketing.
