Public Data Hackathon
The Public Data Hackathon was held in November 2016 with the aim of promoting transparency by designing proposals for data journalism and multimedia narratives. This initiative was organized in two phases. In the first part, a journalism workshop was held for 25 selected women. In the second phase, the hackathon was held, with a total of 50 participants, including the 25 workshop participants. Data management experts, programmers, designers, journalists and students were able to collaborate in the hackathon. The organizers enabled an online registration website for those interested in participating. The hackathon concluded with 6 prototype projects for designed data.
Institutional design
Formalization: is the innovation embedded in the constitution or legislation, in an administrative act, or not formalized at all?
Frequency: how often does the innovation take place: only once, sporadically, or is it permanent or regular?
Mode of Selection of Participants: is the innovation open to all participants, access is restricted to some kind of condition, or both methods apply?
Type of participants: those who participate are individual citizens, civil society organizations, private stakeholders or a combination of those?
Decisiveness: does the innovation takes binding, non-binding or no decision at all?
Co-governance: is there involvement of the government in the process or not?
