Open Government: A Precondition for an Adaptive Public Sector

Jan 25, 2024 1:00 PM EST (UTC-5)
PREMIUM webinar

This webinar is about Open Government and the Adaptive Public sector, and it is hinged on Power Skills on the PMI Triangle. Public sector initiatives can originate from citizens, but if a government is not open there will be no recognition for civic space, and it might be impossible for citizens to have a voice in what the government does. Open government creates the necessary framework for civil society and the public to be able to make input in governance; enabling citizens to hold leaders accountable via open data, while preventing wrongdoings on both sides. This webinar will provide insights into the concept of open government and explain why it is a precondition for advancing an adaptive public sector. Lessons will be drawn from Estonia’s openness-by-design, and some testimonies shared during the recently held Open Government Partnership Summit.

This webinar is about adaptive government projects, and it is hinged on the ways of working on the PMI talent triangle. Government is increasingly embracing the adaptive approach to manage public projects. This has resulted in a shift from the traditional style of service delivery towards a citizen-centric approach that delivers value. One of such projects is the Estonian eResidency project. Our research focused on gaining insights into the perception of users (eCitizens) of the exceptional Estonian eResidency. Findings revealed that eResidents perceive government as a transactional service platform, as well as a member state and expressed a sense of belongingness.
