The document discusses using web 2.0 tools to improve collaboration and information sharing for disaster risk reduction and civil protection. It notes that citizens can act as sensors by sharing geolocated alerts and reports, which can help monitor situations. The proposed doctoral project aims to set up a web/mobile application called Geodata4all to create a shared map where different groups can collaborate by exchanging data, knowledge, and analysis in real time. This could include sending alerts and communications. The goal is to foster more resilient communities through open sharing of geoscience information.

The Informational Economy: Knowledge and Cyberspacebukky36

People started exploring the idea that technology would revolutionize society in dramatic ways. While views differed on details, many agreed that combining computing and telecommunications marked the beginning of a new era. This allowed communities of interest to form and connect in new flexible and productive ways, contributing more to various fields. However, information technology also creates problems like significant differences in information availability between regions that could increase. Additionally, some governments may be wary of new information and reluctant to promote certain types of communities, despite the ability to remotely access information-rich regions with low-cost terminals. There were also initial hopes that the internet would revitalize a sense of community, but disadvantages of only interacting virtually with those never met became a social liability.
Active citizens and journalists using open data to innovate the information s...USAC Program

Active citizens and journalists in Italy are using open data and new platforms like street television to circumvent corporate media monopolies and promote civic issues. The Italian government also passed a transparency decree to increase accessibility of public administration information and encourage distributed monitoring of government activities. Community groups are emerging that focus on data journalism, technological skills sharing, and building communities of watchdogs and storytellers to empower citizens and overcome challenges of traditional media.
This document discusses how digital technologies and social media are impacting public spaces and civic participation. It makes three key points:
1) The internet allows for global connections between local events, forming new geographies that transcend physical boundaries.
2) While most politics remain local, digital media can amplify the visibility of political activities in public spaces.
3) The public sphere has become "hybrid", incorporating both virtual and physical spaces as citizens simultaneously engage across these environments. Social networks now serve as important civic spaces for communication, collaboration, and collective action.
This document discusses the emergence of online disability activism in response to UK welfare cuts. It analyzes three types of online actors opposing the cuts: formal organizations, digitized activists, and digital action networks. The research focuses on the digital action network "The Broken of Britain" and its Facebook page. Analysis found the group effectively builds consensus online around personal stories and alternative policy frames. However, questions remain around its long-term sustainability and accountability as a new form of online-only disability activism.

The document discusses the rise of online communication and social media, and how local governments can harness social media to better engage with communities. It introduces Citizenscape, a tool created by Public-i to bring together online conversations from social media and connect them to democratic processes, allowing governments to better represent virtual communities and integrate online and offline engagement.
The document discusses the use of Web 2.0 tools for emergency management and crisis response. It provides examples of how crowdsourcing, citizen journalism, and social media mapping have enabled faster and more engaged responses to events like earthquakes, protests, and political crises. Specific tools and platforms mentioned include Ushahidi, CrisisCommons, and interactive maps used by organizations like the Guardian.
This document provides information about redistricting and a public mapping software project.

YouTube is one of the most globally utilised online content sharing sites, enabling new commercial enterprise, education opportunities and facilities for vernacular creativity (Burgess, 2006). Its user engagement demonstrates significant capacity to develop online communities, alongside its arguably more popular use as a distribution platform to monetise ones branded self (Senft, 2013). However, as a subset of Alphabet Incorporated, its access is often restricted by governments of Asian Pacific countries who disagree with the ideology of the business. Despite this, online communities thrive in these countries, bringing into question the sorts of augmentations used by its participants. This article reframes the discussion beyond restrictive regulation to focus on the DIY approach (augmentation) of community building through the use of hidden infrastructures (algorithms). This comparative study of key YouTube channels in several Asia Pacific countries highlights the sorts of techniques that bypass limiting infrastructures to boost online community engagement and growth. Lastly, this article reframes the significance of digital intermediation to highlight the opportunities key agents contribute to strengthening social imaginaries within the Asia Pacific region.

It suggests that when media becomes embodied, spatial in its operations, and place-based in its content, this could change what it means for content to be something people actively engage with in different locations, rather than just passively receiving. It also briefly mentions several trends and concepts related to urban computing, pervasive computing, and place-based media.

This document summarizes a study of online petitions from the platform Avaaz.org. The researchers collected data on 366,214 petitions to analyze patterns in authorship, social media sharing, languages, and geographic origins. They found heavy-tailed distributions for prolific authors and social media shares. Signatures and social shares were strongly correlated except for some Indonesian petitions with millions of signatures but few shares, likely due to a past technical bug. The data also provided evidence of multilingual countries and influence of global leaders. Future work could include bot detection, content analysis, and examining gender patterns in online petitioning.

Under what conditions can new technologies enhance the well-being of poor communities? The study designs an alternative evaluation framework (AEF) that applies Amartya Sens capability approach to the study of information and communications technologies (ICTs) in order to place peoples well-being, rather than technology, at the center of the study. The AEF develops an impact chain that examines the mechanisms by which access to, and meaningful use of, ICTs can enhance peoples informational capabilities and improve peoples human and social capabilities. This approach thus uses peoples individual and collective capabilities, rather than measures of access or use, as its principal evaluative space. Based on empirical evidence from indigenous communities use of new technologies in rural Bolivia, the study concludes that enhancing poor peoples informational capabilities is the most critical factor determining the impact of ICTs on their well-being. Improved informational capabilities, like literacy, do enhance the human capabilities of poor and marginalized peoples to make strategic life choices and achieve the lifestyle they value. Evaluating the impact of ICTs in terms of capabilities thus reveals no direct relationship between improved access to, and use of, ICTs and enhanced well-being; ICTs lead to improvements in peoples lives only when informational capabilities are transformed into expanded human and social capabilities in the economic, political, social, organizational, and cultural dimensions of their lives. The study concludes that intermediaries are bound to play a central, even fundamental, role in this process. They help poor communities to enact and appropriate ICTs to their local socio-cultural context so that their use becomes meaningful for peoples daily lives, enhances their informational capabilities, and ultimately improves their human and social capabilities.

Ushahidi is open source software that allows for real-time crowdsourcing and mapping of information. It was originally developed in 2008 to map reports of violence in Kenya following post-election conflicts when traditional media failed. Ushahidi means "testimony" in Swahili and allows individuals to share stories by reporting incidents on a map. It has since been used for crisis response, election monitoring, community mapping and more. The platform lowers barriers for people to share information and their stories in real-time.
The document discusses challenges with using blogs and online forums to facilitate public consultation and debate on controversial issues. It notes that the government's Digital Economy Blog attracted criticism and discussion that strayed from selected topics. It also discusses options for designing online deliberative spaces and tools to better enable civil debate on the topic of digital images of young people, including research archives, citizen juries, moderated discussions, and citizen-drafted policy summaries.
The document discusses conducting research on streaming mobile video content that has civic value. It proposes analyzing content from sites like Ustream and Qik to categorize video types and measure viewer discussion. Interviews would explore producers' goals and contexts. While the field is emerging, the research could provide insights into how streaming mobile video impacts civic participation and the blurring line between public and private spheres. However, challenges include the rapidly changing technology and capturing cultural context from international content.
This document discusses how new internet technologies are changing public service delivery and citizen participation. It notes that the OECD has called for new ways of working that leverage networks and connectivity to involve stakeholders. As citizens' expectations grow to participate in and shape services, the public sector must promote transparency and tap into these social forces. Web 2.0 sites have become very popular among younger generations who have grown up with technology and see the digital world as a normal way of life, communicating, and establishing relationships. This new "Net Generation" prefers interactivity and could provide opportunities for more cost-effective public services through greater citizen involvement and sharing of information online.
The document discusses how new technologies and social media are changing how the public engages with government and politics. It argues that representatives need to adapt to these changes by using tools like social media, open data, and online engagement to better involve constituents and collaborate with local communities. Failing to adapt risks losing relevance as the expectations of an always-connected public diverge from traditional political structures. The document urges representatives to consider how their role may need to evolve over the next 5-20 years to maintain meaningful relationships with citizens in this changing digital landscape.
The document discusses several topics related to democracy and the internet, including how electronic technologies can impact private spaces and democratic rights, how online communities like Second Life and social media can promote activism and discussion, and debates around public versus private spheres in digital spaces. It also examines issues of surveillance, control of online spaces, and the potential for the internet to reinvigorate public discourse.
Here's my presentation at NewComm Forum 2010: "Social and Entrepreneurial: The Paths to the New Journalism," a look at the fast-evolving journalism and social media landscape, the opportunities for new players, and why the old guard won't survive if they don't make significant changes to their corporate cultures.
The document discusses how elected officials can better engage with citizens using new technologies and the concept of co-production. It argues that representative democracy needs to change to reflect an increasingly networked society. Some engagement strategies proposed include using social media like Facebook and Twitter, holding virtual meetings and surgeries, opening up government data and processes, and collaborating with digital activists and online communities. The goal is for elected representatives to build relationships with constituents over the long term through more transparent and participatory governance.
The document discusses how policing needs to adapt to changes in society due to new communication technologies and the internet. It argues that the concept of "community" now includes online groups that never meet in person. It suggests that policing should engage with online communities through social media to build relationships, understand cultures, and enable coproduction of services to reduce costs. Building relationships online can help offset cuts to policing budgets and manpower by allowing the public to take on more responsibility for their own safety.
In order for the internet to play a greater role as an instrument for social and personal empowerment, we need to understand what the everyday life of an individual belonging to a minority or marginalized community encompasses. Such an approach calls for closer examination of the practices, system of relations and context of particular minority and marginalized users in order to figure out what is meaningful to them and how they use (or do not use) different forms of the internet for meeting their objectives. There is a need to acknowledge the multiple conceptualizations and forms of internet use as disadvantaged users apply these differently for meeting specific agendas.
This article presented three projects working with minority and marginalized users. In the context of future research on internet use, three broad sets of variables are closely connected and require careful attention:
The type of marginalized group;
The goals, expectations and identification of what particular marginalized users consider to be meaningful in their everyday life; and
The selected method of research.
Technology And Customer Consultation Kieran Lenihanklenihan
油
The document discusses citizen participation and customer consultation through new technologies like Web 2.0. It notes that Web 2.0 allows for greater consultation and involvement of citizens through social media sites. Reasons to consider these technologies include their popularity, potential to involve citizens in improving services, and opportunities for cost savings. The document advocates for more transparency and debate to foster trust and societal outcomes.
The key steps to developing a social media strategy are to 1) tie social media goals to the organization's mission and objectives, 2) decide which tools best meet those goals, 3) develop engaging content, 4) assign owners and define the audience, and 5) create an implementation and evaluation schedule. The strategy should leverage various social media tools like blogs, videos, podcasts, and social networking.
The document discusses how risks and emergency management are changing in the Web 2.0 era. It notes that the Gutenberg printing press revolutionized information sharing, and now the Internet is having a similar effect. Web 2.0 allows for open, collaborative communication and real-time sharing through social media. This was seen after the 2009 earthquake in Abruzzo, Italy, where citizens used Facebook and Twitter to communicate. The document argues that institutions should recognize this transformation and work with volunteer technical communities and citizens to build trust and reliability. A pilot project in Italy aims to crowdsource alerts and information sharing between civil protection groups.
The document discusses how mass collaboration is changing various aspects of society through several examples. It describes how Wikipedia has become one of the largest reference websites through collaboration of millions of editors. It also discusses how open source models have allowed for peer-produced collaboration in areas like software, finance, lending, and more. Finally, it suggests collaboration tools can transform government and democracy by facilitating greater citizen participation and engagement with leaders.
