On 29 April 2021, from 14:00 to 15:00 (CEST), Policy Cloud is hosting a webinar on Open Data Policies for Citizens.

The pilot use case Open Data Policies for Citizens is being run in Camden, one of the twelve boroughs of inner London. The pilot addresses social services policy planning in the area. Precisely, the work articulates around predicting risk factors across four distinct domains:

  • Housing and adult social care 
  • Children, schools and families
  • Culture and environment planning 
  • Building and parking services

Using the information harvested from data analytics, the Council will be able to design evidence-based policies and evaluate their economic feasibility, political viability, and legitimacy, thereby improving the quality of the services offered to citizens and achieving efficiency and effectiveness, which are key elements of good governance.

The webinar includes the following topics:

  • Pilots use case 
  • Technology solutions
  • EU policy context 
  • Round Table Discussion

Who should attend 

  • Policymakers
  • Public administrators
  • Decision Makers 
  • Social Science Researchers
