International journal of advanced Information technology (IJAIT) is a bi monthly open access peer-
reviewed journal, will act as a major forum for the presentation of innovative ideas, approaches,
developments, and research projects in the area advanced information technology applications and
services. It will also serve to facilitate the exchange of information between researchers and industry
professionals to discuss the latest issues and advancement in the area of advanced IT. Core areas of
advanced IT and multi-disciplinary and its applications will be covered during the conferences.
Citizen Observatories (COs) are initiatives that empower citizens to engage in data collection, analysis and interpretation in order to address various issues affecting their communities and contribute to policy-making and community development.
Thematic co-exploration is a co-production process where citizens actively participate alongside scientists and other actors in the exploration of specific themes.
Making them a reality involves addressing the following challenges:
Data quality and reliability
Engagement and retention of participants
Integration with policy and decision-making
