Over the last year or so, there's been a growing consensus and practice in the Chicago OpenGov community that inclusion of residents is an important (and often missing) element of successful civic innovation.
Join us for a night of discussion of three methods for engaging with residents in the design / build process.
George Aye of Greater Good Studio will discuss their unique asset-based approach to design for solving social issues and talk about some current projects, with a focus on inclusive methods for public engagement.
Patrick C. Cunningham will discuss work with Design Cloud Chicago focused on collaborative approaches to development and use adoption. As a hybrid design firm + art gallery + business incubator + community hub, he will also cover the overall D:CL business and creative structure. Additional inclusive design projects such as AirLab and an Archeworks Research Fellowship will be presented as well.
Daniel X. O'Neil will review work to date on the Civic User Testing Group, a set of regular Chicago residents who get paid to test out civic apps. He'll review the process of setting up the CUTGroup platform, the methods used to engage with residents, and talk about how Smart Chicago has signed up nearly 400 people from all over the city to test out the work we all make.

The Open Government Partnership Regional Meeting for the Americas were held in San José, Costa Rica on 18-19 November 2014 - preceded by a Civil Society Day on November 17. The Open Government Partnership currently includes 17 participant countries from the Americas region that are committed to making open government reforms in close coordination with civil society. These governments, and others that are not yet part of OGP, have implemented reforms to further strengthen transparency, citizen participation, collaboration and accountability in their countries. The Regional Meeting served as a space to highlight good practices and successful initiatives, discussing the challenges faced, and establishing support and peer exchange regional mechanisms. All open government reformers champions in the region were welcomed to the event, including: official delegates from Americas countries currently participating or considering future participation in OGP, public servants from all levels of government, representatives of civil society and non-governmental organizations, representatives of international, regional and multilateral agencies, the business sector, and the academic community.

Ganemos Málaga ha presentado públicamente a su candidata a la alcaldía, la abogada Ysabel Torralbo. Acompañada del resto de candidatos-as, ha dado a conocer las líneas estratégicas de su programa electoral, redactado durante el último año por una decena de foros ciudadanos.
Entre las medidas cabe destacar la puesta en marcha de un Plan de Rescate Ciudadano que pasa por una auditoría de las cuentas municipales, una renta complementaria municipal para los amplios sectores de la ciudad que se encuentran en situación de emergencia social, como un estudio del parque de vivienda municipal que acabe con los desalojos y facilite el acceso a la vivienda.

La candidatura de Ganemos Málaga para acabar con 30 años de bipartidismo, encabezada por Ysabel Torralbo (centro)
“La democracia es también una forma de hacer”, ha aseverado Torralbo. En este sentido, Oliver Roales, abogado anticorrupción y profesor de Derecho Constitucional de la Universidad de Málaga, ha detallado las medidas de transparencia y monitorización en tiempo real de la gestión pública. Todo ello implicará dar mayor protagonismo e intervención a los órganos de distrito y los consejos vecinales.
“La transparencia beneficia tanto a los ciudadanos como a los buenos gestores”
“La transparencia beneficia tanto a los ciudadanos como a los buenos gestores”, ha asegurado Roales, por lo que se creará un mecanismo de seguimiento tanto de los presupuestos municipales como de su ejecución.
Otra de las medidas será la revisión de la externalización y privatización de servicios esenciales con vistas a una remunicipalización y un nuevo modelo productivo. Las empresas contratadas para servicios esenciales del Ayuntamiento deberán cumplir criterios de protección laboral, social y ecológicos.
Se pondrá en marcha un nuevo modelo energético y de sostenibilidad con coste prácticamente nulo
En cuanto a Medio Ambiente, se pondrá en marcha un nuevo modelo energético y de sostenibilidad con coste prácticamente nulo a las arcas municipales y un nuevo cinturón verde. Asimismo, tendrá especial relevancia un Plan Interseccional de Cuidados, que velará por las condiciones materiales de las trabajadoras domésticas, formales e informales.
Ganemos Málaga no renuncia a la excelencia cultural, por lo que apostará por un modelo a largo plazo que sedimente y enriquezca a sus ciudadanos-as y optimice los recursos económicos actuales. Para ello, creará un plan que agrupe a creadores-as y gestores-as. La ciudad debe recuperar su carácter público, algo que pasa por la protección de su patrimonio y nuevas medidas de movilidad y accesibilidad.
El próximo mes de abril, Ganemos Málaga presentará su programa definitivo y el nombre con el que concurrirá a las elecciones para acabar con tres décadas de bipartidismo.
