Food for Thought: Digital Civics - Infrastructure-ing participatory citizenship
This talk is about a research initiative in “Digital Civics” that Prof. Patrick Olivier has been undertaking, firstly at Open Lab, Newcastle University in the United Kingdom, and now at Monash University, Australia. Digital Civics proposes the use of digital technologies in the provision of relational models of citizen-centred services, that is, models that take as a starting point the potential of digital technologies to support citizen-focused sharing of knowledge, experience and resources.
