OECD Open Government Data Project
What values are governments expecting?
• Economic value
• Growth and competitiveness in the wider economy
• Fostering innovation, efficiency and effectiveness in government
services (internal and external)
• Social value
• Promoting citizens’ self-empowerment, social participation and
engagement
• Public governance value
• Improving accountability, transparency, responsiveness and
democratic control
Open data beyond transparency to
improve service delivery ….
•
•
Improved service delivery emerging from initiatives originally driven by a
government’s push for greater transparency around data
ICT + Open data = potential revolutionary approach to service design and
provision and to assess efficiency in the delivery and users’ satisfaction
How?
•
better use of data analysis in policy making and public services for more
integrated and innovative service delivery
•
involving innovators from inside and outside governments to crowdsource ideas and to create new ways to tackle old and new problems.
•
frontline professionals who see real time performance and impact of
public services and policies on citizens can generate and use appropriate
data and develop apps to improve service experience if given tools and
incentives to do so
•
blurring of personal and professional lives in terms of 2.0 tools use could
improve performance through two-way exchange of experience and skills
…and to strengthen citizens’ selfempowerment, participation and public
engagement.
• OGD initiatives supported by Web 2.0 and social media applications
create an architecture for participative and empowering
relationships with citizens
HOW?
• users not only passive consumers of content and services, but also
active contributors and designers of their own right
• data smart disclosure (i.e. the timely release of data in
standardised, machine-readable formats in ways that enable users
to make better decisions about finance, healthcare, energy or other
personal contexts) empowers citizens to take more informed
decisions that can enhance the quality of their lives

Emerging approaches
• The “pioneers” (e.g. UK, USA, Spain)
• Devising a sustainable financial mechanism
(e.g. Denmark, the Netherlands)
• Establishing the governance framework first
(e.g. Germany, Switzerland)
• Quick followers (e.g. France, Canada and
Mexico)

OECD OGD Project : What’s next ?
Data to create value: with whom and
how?
• Which ecosystem?
•
Inside the public sector: workflows to gather, integrate, validate, release, up-date
and promote re-use of data (statistical offices, archives, sector data producers,
etc.)
•
Outside the public sector: to sustain data re-use (media, private sector, civil
society, librarians, developers, community of practitioners, etc.)
• What activity?
•
Data mining, data analytics (for policy making and service delivery), crowdsourcing to support service innovation, social innovation, evidence-based
performance, improved financial decisions, data mash-up and data sharing,
licensing, standards, hackaton events, metadata.
• Which capacities?
•
Ensure sustainability and autonomy: data scientist, visualisation expert,
statistics and data analytics expert, computing and systems programming skills,
policy expert.
• How to assess it?
•
Assessment overall (Phase 1 in OECD and LAC) commitment to implementation
(short term) and impact (medium term)
