How can Open Government Tackle Disinformation? // Come il governo aperto può contrastare la disinformazione?
Events like the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have demonstrated that the spread of disinformation threatens the free and fact-based exchange of information that underpins democracy and trust in public institutions. 


Radical transformations to the information ecosystem have upended traditional communication methods and enabled the spread of content at a previously unimaginable scale. The dominance of online channels, where every individual can be both a producer and consumer of content, means that governments face greater competition for the attention of citizens. But digital platforms also create new opportunities for unmediated contact with vast and diverse publics, allowing governments to deliver information that enhances responsiveness and builds trust.


Many open government reforms can help to promote a healthy information ecosystem, including promoting high standards of public discourse; strengthening the independence and transparency of news media, ensuring the transparency and accountability of social media platforms; and supporting fact-checking, civic education, citizen dialogue and other counters to disinformation. This session will explore these reforms and the opportunities and challenges of tackling disinformation.

--
Eventi come la pandemia di COVID-19 e l'invasione russa dell'Ucraina hanno mostrato che la diffusione della disinformazione minaccia il libero scambio di informazioni basato sui fatti che è alla base della democrazia e della fiducia nelle istituzioni pubbliche.

Le trasformazioni radicali dell'ecosistema dell'informazione hanno stravolto i metodi di comunicazione tradizionali e consentito la diffusione di contenuti su una scala prima inimmaginabile. Il predominio dei canali online, in cui ogni individuo può essere sia produttore che consumatore di contenuti, significa che i governi devono fronteggiare maggiore concorrenza per catturare l'attenzione dei cittadini. Tuttavia, le piattaforme digitali creano anche nuove opportunità di contatto non mediato con un pubblico vasto e diversificato, consentendo ai governi di fornire informazioni che migliorano la ricettività e creano fiducia.

Molte riforme di governo aperto possono aiutare a promuovere un sano ecosistema dell'informazione, inclusa la promozione di standard elevati del discorso pubblico; rafforzare l'indipendenza e la trasparenza dei mezzi di informazione, garantendo la trasparenza e la responsabilità delle piattaforme dei social media; e supportare la verifica dei fatti, l'educazione civica, il dialogo con i cittadini e altri mezzi di contrasto alla disinformazione. Questa sessione esplorerà queste riforme, le opportunità e le sfide della lotta alla disinformazione.

Local Open Government: How Does Context Define Action? // Local Open Government: in che modo il contesto definisce l'azione?
The local open government movement is growing. Hundreds of local governments and civil society are championing open government reforms in different contexts around the world. Despite this diversity, they share similar issues and one common ambition, to improve the lives of people in their jurisdictions.

In this interactive discussion, OGP Local members will share how their local context has shaped their experience in adopting open government reforms, including their most impactful, challenging commitments and co-creation design choices. This session aims  to better understand the contexts that shaped the local's journey to adopt open government reforms, learn from similar experiences, and be inspired to adopt ambitious open government reforms. 

During the session, there will be an opportunity for the audience to interact virtually with the presenters by asking questions and sharing their opinions.

Il movimento del governo aperto locale è in crescita. Centinaia di governi locali e organizzazioni della società civile stanno sostenendo le riforme dei governi aperti in contesti diversi e in tutto il mondo. Nonostante questa diversità, condividono problemi simili e un'ambizione comune, quella di migliorare la vita delle persone nelle loro giurisdizioni.

In questa discussione interattiva, i membri di OGP Local condivideranno come il loro contesto locale ha plasmato la loro esperienza nell'adozione di riforme di governo aperto, compresi i loro impegni più incisivi e stimolanti e le scelte progettuali di co-creazione. Questa sessione mira a comprendere meglio il contesto locale che ha plasmato il percorso per adottare riforme del governo aperto e a imparare da esperienze simili ed essere ispirato a adottare ambiziose riforme di governo aperto.

Durante la sessione, il pubblico avrà l’opportunità di interagire virtualmente con i relatori ponendo domande e condividendo le proprie opinioni.

Open Government for the EU Recovery Agenda: How? // Governo aperto per l'agenda di ripresa dell'UE: come?
Accountability and transparency on how money is spent–and on whom–will be critical to ensure the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) at the core of this investment delivers in making European economies and societies more sustainable, resilient, and better prepared for the challenges and opportunities of the green and digital transitions.

Oddly enough, the European Commission did not commit member states to rigorous reporting and public oversight requirements on these loans and grants, which will total over €672bn, despite a terrible track record of corruption and misspending in EU funds.

The Open Spending EU Coalition’s, recent White Paper on RRF Transparency offered a recipe for improving spending transparency across the EU. 

During this interactive panel, we will hear from the EU governments and civil society about their approach to the openness of the EU funds and offer the desired model for transparency of RRF spending. We will spend most of the time in group discussion - you will have lots of space to contribute.

--
Responsabilità e trasparenza su come vengono spesi i soldi e su chi sarà fondamentale per garantire che il Piano di ripresa e resilienza (RRF) al centro di questo investimento contribuisca a rendere le economie e le società europee più sostenibili, resilienti e meglio preparate per le sfide e le opportunità delle transizioni verde e digitale.

Stranamente, la Commissione europea non ha vincolato gli Stati membri a obblighi di rendicontazione rigorosi e di controllo pubblico su questi prestiti e sovvenzioni, che ammonteranno a oltre 672 miliardi di euro, nonostante un terribile track record di corruzione e spese errate nei fondi dell'UE.

Il recente Libro bianco sulla trasparenza della RRF della Open Spending EU Coalition ha offerto una ricetta per migliorare la trasparenza della spesa in tutta l'UE.

Durante questa sessione interattiva, ascolteremo i governi dell'UE e la società civile sul loro approccio all'apertura dei fondi dell'UE e offriremo il modello desiderato per la trasparenza della spesa RRF. La maggior parte del tempo sarà dedicata alla discussione di gruppo: avrai molto spazio per contribuire.

Embedding Participation in Climate Policy-Making: Examples from the Partnership // Includere la partecipazione nella definizione delle politiche sul clima: esempi dalla partnership
Increased public participation builds a more engaged citizenry, increases the legitimacy of decisions, and helps ensure policymakers have valuable local knowledge. Participatory processes in climate policy-making are becoming increasingly popular, as both citizens and governments react to the climate change emergency. Members of OGP are now leveraging their action plans to test and embed participatory processes in climate policy-making. This session is an opportunity for stakeholders from OGP members to share the successes and challenges of these efforts with other members of the European open government community considering similar activities.

--

Una maggiore partecipazione pubblica contribuisce a creare una cittadinanza più coinvolta, aumenta la legittimità delle decisioni e aiuta a garantire che i responsabili politici dispongano di rilevante sapere locale. I processi partecipativi nella definizione delle politiche climatiche stanno diventando sempre più popolari, affinché sia i cittadini che i governi reagiscano all'emergenza del cambiamento climatico. I membri di OGP stanno ora sfruttando i loro piani d'azione per testare e integrare processi partecipativi nel processo decisionale sul clima. Questa sessione è un'opportunità per gli attori interessati dai paesi membri OGP di condividere i successi e le sfide di questi sforzi con altri membri della comunità di governo aperto europea che stanno considerando attività simili.

Tackling Kleptocracy and Dark Money through Open Government Tools // Combattere la cleptocrazia e il denaro illecito attraverso strumenti di governo aperti
Russia’s brutal full-scale invasion of Ukraine has led to the strong global reckoning of kleptocracy, with the European Union and the UK imposing targeted sanctions on Kremlin-linked corrupt oligarchs. However, denying safe haven to ill-gotten wealth requires more active transparency measures and coordinated multilateral efforts to trace, freeze and seize assets stored in European countries.

Beneficial ownership transparency has emerged as an important tool in the fight against illicit financial flows, corruption, and tax evasion, with more than 30 countries in OGP committing to reforms in this area. The panel will focus on using beneficial ownership registers in ending anonymous companies as vehicles for hiding dark money, and will identify current loopholes/challenges for effective seizure and return of ill-gotten assets.

--
La brutale invasione su vasta scala dell'Ucraina da parte della Russia ha portato a una forte resa dei conti globale della cleptocrazia, con l'Unione Europea e il Regno Unito che hanno imposto sanzioni mirate agli oligarchi corrotti legati al Cremlino. Tuttavia, negare un rifugio sicuro alle ricchezze illecite richiede misure di trasparenza più attive e sforzi multilaterali coordinati per rintracciare, congelare e sequestrare i beni conservati nei paesi europei.

La trasparenza della titolarità effettiva è emersa come uno strumento importante nella lotta contro i flussi finanziari illeciti, la corruzione e l'evasione fiscale, con oltre 30 paesi in OGP che si impegnano a fare riforme in questo settore. Il panel si concentrerà sull'utilizzo dei registri della proprietà effettiva per porre fine alle società anonime come veicoli per nascondere denaro illecito e identificherà le scappatoie e le sfide attuali per un effettivo sequestro e restituzione di beni illeciti.

What are the Conditions and Rules for Involving Citizens in the Design of Digital Public Services? // Quali sono le condizioni e le regole per coinvolgere i cittadini nella progettazione dei servizi pubblici digitali?
Inclusive and participatory design can not only improve the quality of service delivery, but can also increase trust between citizens, administrations and politicians, and improve accountability. As more and more public services are moving online, it is crucial to involve users in the design and provide channels for their feedback. 

Join this session to hear how citizens have been involved in the design of digital public services at both national and local levels and to discuss what a participation agreement could look like for future design efforts.

--

La progettazione inclusiva e partecipativa non solo può migliorare la qualità dell'erogazione dei servizi, ma può anche aumentare la fiducia tra cittadini, amministrazioni e politici, e migliorare la responsabilità. Poiché sempre più servizi pubblici si stanno spostando online, è fondamentale coinvolgere gli utenti nella progettazione e fornire canali per il loro feedback.

Partecipa a questa sessione per ascoltare come i cittadini sono stati coinvolti nella progettazione di servizi pubblici digitali a livello nazionale e locale e per discutere su come potrebbe configurarsi un accordo sulla partecipazione nei futuri sforzi di progettazione.

The State of Open Data Against Political Corruption in OGP Countries // Lo stato dell’open data contro la corruzione politica nei paesi OGP
Find out what data your country releases to counter political corruption - from officials’ assets, to which interest groups are shaping legislation and policy, who is winning contracts, and who is behind the most influential companies.

After a short overview of key findings, we will hear from the experts behind the reforms and the research. In particular, this session will build on the excellent work of the Global Data Barometer and the Data for Development Network

Then, we want to hear from you. The session will have small group discussions on how to use OGP’s new flagship report on political corruption to improve action plans. How can the national, subregional, and European institutional levels help us move more towards fair and transparent decision-making?

What is the Future for Democratic Participation in Europe? // Quale futuro per la partecipazione democratica in Europa?
Democratic participation in Europe is faced with significant challenges and opportunities. On the one hand, at least 20% of EU member states are going through a process of autocratization according to V-DEM, while CIVICUS notes a continuing decline of civic space in the region, including in established democracies. But on the other hand, there is an unprecedented wave of democratic innovations and deliberative policy-making processes. Will this wave dissipate, or can we grasp the challenges of scale and institutionalization to renew democracy in Europe?

This session will explore the future of democratic participation in Europe. It will delve into a number of specific topics, including how we can protect democratic freedoms; how to nurture continuing democratic innovation; and how we can institutionalize citizen participation. Presenters will kick-start the discussion via a series of lightning talks, followed by small group discussions to share ideas and experiences.

--

La partecipazione democratica in Europa deve affrontare sfide e opportunità significative. Da un lato, almeno il 20% degli Stati membri dell'UE sta attraversando un processo di autocratizzazione secondo V-DEM, mentre CIVICUS rileva un continuo declino dello spazio civico nella regione, anche nelle democrazie consolidate. D’altra parte, si è verificata un'ondata senza precedenti di innovazioni democratiche e di processi decisionali deliberativi. Questa onda si dissiperà o possiamo cogliere le sfide per scalare o di istituzionalizzazione per rinnovare la democrazia in Europa?

Questa sessione esplorerà il futuro della partecipazione democratica in Europa. Analizzerà una serie di argomenti specifici, compreso il modo in cui possiamo proteggere le libertà democratiche; come coltivare l’innovazione democratica continua; e come possiamo istituzionalizzare la partecipazione dei cittadini. I relatori daranno il via alla discussione attraverso una serie di Lightning talks, seguiti da discussioni in piccoli gruppi per condividere idee ed esperienze.

Lobby Transparency: Why and for Whom? // Trasparenza delle lobbies: perché e per chi?
Engaging stakeholders in policy-making processes is a central aspect of open government, yet the fact of who influences policies and how can often remain unknown to the public. Instead, the public receives news of lobbying through typically scandalous cases of undue influence, which in turn can cause distrust towards policy-makers and lobbyists alike. According to Global Data Barometer, lobbying is the lowest performing indicator in the political integrity field, with only 19 of the surveyed 109 countries disclosing data on lobby meetings.

While many OGP members have worked or are working with increasing lobby transparency, progress can be slow and be hindered by political turmoil. This session serves as an opportunity to share experiences of regulating lobbying in Europe, of building coalitions and of creating political will in the name of increasing public trust and citizen engagement.

--

Il coinvolgimento dei portatori di interesse nei processi decisionali delle politiche è un aspetto centrale del governo aperto, ma il chi e il come s’influenzano le politiche spesso resta sconosciuto al pubblico. Al contrario, il pubblico riceve notizie di attività di lobbying attraverso scandali e tipicamente casi di influenza illecita, che a loro volta possono causare sfiducia nei confronti dei responsabili politici e dei lobbisti allo stesso modo. Secondo il Global Data Barometer, il lobbying è l'indicatore con le prestazioni più basse nel campo dell'integrità politica, con solo 19 sui 109 paesi intervistati che divulgano dati sulle riunioni di lobby.

Mentre molti membri di OGP hanno lavorato o stanno lavorando con una crescente trasparenza sulle attività di lobbying, il progresso può essere lento ed essere ostacolato da disordini politici. Questa sessione è un'opportunità per condividere esperienze di regolamentazione del lobbismo in Europa, per la costruzione di alleanze e creazione di volontà politica in nome dell'aumento della fiducia pubblica e del coinvolgimento dei cittadini.

Following the OECD Recommendation of the Council on Open Government (2017) and based on a comprehensive theory of change, an Open Government Dashboard has been developed to assess not only governance arrangements, but also evaluate their effect on government openness.

Other methods used by Finland, Slovakia and Ukraine will be presented, as well as the various approaches used by the OGP Independent Reporting Mechanism and the Support Unit to measure and assess progress against dimensions of open government.
