AI Public Awareness Working Group
Government of Canada

Center for Technology in Government
The information polity perspective described in this paper provides government a way to identify the various stakeholders and their patterns of interaction that influence or control the generation, flows, and uses of enhanced information resources in open data initiatives.

These tools support planners' ability to generate informed hypotheses about changing…
The information polity perspective described in this paper provides government a way to identify the various stakeholders and their patterns of interaction that influence or control the generation, flows, and uses of enhanced information resources in open data initiatives. The dynamic modeling techniques used highlight the ways different constraints can impact the system as a whole and affect value creation. These tools support planners' ability to generate informed hypotheses about changing patterns of interaction among existing and potential new stakeholders. In this way, governments can better evaluate the costs, risks, and benefits of a wide variety of open data initiatives.

100 Future Leaders: The World’s Most Influential Young People in Government
Apolitio
Drawing on hundreds of nominations from experts and leading organisations, the list recognises people in the field of government and policy who have made a mark early in their careers (everyone on the list is aged 35 or below).
These include some well-known faces at the centre of policymaking who are exerting influence on the international stage. But we also shine the spotlight on those quietly transforming the face of government at the local or national level.

These young leaders are ones to watch, who will continue to transform governments far and wide for years to come.
