This year there was a session dedicated to big data, here you can find my speech (in Spanish).
don’t care about the initial image (it’s me when you press start the video)
And the presentation
Every member can submit a annual plan to explain which will be their action for the next year. This plan is independently reviewed and their reviews are published.
Even more, some main data about accomplishment are made public in this databases (Commitments analyzed and Accomplishments of the plan).
Let’s make a tiny experiment with these data.
First of all we have to know that the submitted plan could incorporate new actions or existing ones. Secondly these actions could be completed or not accordingly to the plan. Thirdly and very important, these action could have a moderate, minor or a transformative effect on the countries’ governance. Last but not least, these action could be relevant (or no) for an open government plan.
In all these dimensions of analysis there are some cases in which it is not clear the qualification (or data are not available). These cases should be also considered in this experiment with data.Also severla countries did not submit their reviews on time so their data are not available (USA, UK, S. Africa, Philippines, Mexico, Indonesia and Brazil)
Now let’s create a draft metric about the performance of the different countries.
my first attempt is
[math]
Plan Ambition = log (\sum 100*(Action_i(new))* 100*Action_i(impact)* 100*Action_i(specificity))
[/math]
Why the log? In order to promote more detailed action plans (more actions) but without penalize those more concise. Multiplied if the action has real impact and if the action really affects governance. With these metric we could rank countries according to these graph.
Similarly the progress will be just a minor correction on above formula, and normalized by the # of actions.
[math]
Plan Ambition = log ((\sum 100*(Action_i(new))* 100*Action_i(impact)* 100*Action_i(specificity)*Action_i(progress))/\sum _i)
[/math]
And the the ranking would look like this.
Of course it is just a mere experiment. Possibly unfair with some countries because of the structure of their plan, the assigned weights or because of past experience makes them harder to be ambitious in their plan formulation.
Are we mature enoguh to create such official ranking? I strongly believe it.
Find here the raw data calculation if you want to make your own experiment.
Annex.
Find here the table which assign weights for every dimension of the actions in the plan fo every country.
| New or not | how many | weights |
| 0 | 0 | |
| New | 317 | 1 |
| Pre-existing | 445 | 0.5 |
| Unclear | 21 | 0.5 |
| Grand Total | 783 |
| Completion | how many | weights |
| a. Not started | 116 | 0 |
| b. Limited | 319 | 0.25 |
| c. Substantial | 204 | 0.5 |
| d. Complete | 271 | 1 |
| NA | 8 | 0 |
| Unclear | 23 | 0 |
| Withdrawn | 17 | 0 |
| Grand Total | 958 |
| Impact | how many | weights |
| 0 | 0 | |
| Minor | 247 | 0.25 |
| Moderate | 300 | 0.5 |
| None | 49 | 0 |
| Transformative | 183 | 1 |
| Unclear | 4 | 0.125 |
| Grand Total | 783 |
| Specificity | how many | weights |
| a. low | 242 | 0.25 |
| b. medium | 292 | 0.5 |
| c. high | 394 | 1 |
| None | 30 | 0 |
| Grand Total | 958 |
Currently when public impulse has been reduced due to crisis, the communities around these distributions simply have died of starvation. Or just when elections changed the rulers, newcomers simply declare obsolete the approach and let the initiatives die without any support.
Error 2: Divide yourself and you will be defeated
Error 3: Let minimize your impact on society and you will be margined
Se me ocurren 5 consensos planteables al #15O, muy idealistas, pero no por ello menos necesarios.
Consenso 2: Cambios en los sistemas económicos hacia la transparencia.
Buena parte de esta crisis se ha fraguado gracias a la ocultación de información al público de lo que realmente contenían ciertos activos financieros, al fraude de países respecto a su situación económica real, etc.
Las entidades económicas (empresas, países, ong) de cierta dimensión deberían publicar en tiempo real su información de forma que pueda ser contrastada por cualquiera, no solo por organismos reguladores que a su vez han sido opacos o simplemente negligentes.
Consenso 4. Gobiernos transparentes, abiertos y ‘accountables’.
Consenso 5. Compartir fomenta el desarrollo.
Una mirada con perspectiva histórica puede ayudar.
La edad media
La Revolución industrial y el comienzo del siglo XX
La segunda guerra mundial
El anacronismo actual
“Hola buenos días, estoy hablando con la radio pública verdad?
1) estamos pagando con nuestros impuestos
Es claro que se va a exigir más ‘rendimiento’ y transparencia a aquellas entidades que son sufragadas con el esfuerzo ciudadano. Open data
2) dos principales partidos españoles como si fueran parvularios que lo único que hacen es tirarse los trastos a la cabeza
¿Puede ser el gobierno abierto una solución para este tipo de problemas y no sólo para identificar que aceras hay que arreglar (que tampoco está mal)?
Y máxime ahora en la época de ahorro en que nos encontramos.
Problemas graves para extenderlo
¿Podría una entidad hacer accesibles sus apuntes bancarios a todos los ciudadanos o al menos a un grupo de ellos?
