OK. First, can you describe PDIS? Say whatever you want about it.
From the what?
What are the benefits of social digital innovation and, more broadly, technology for the government and the citizens?
How would you define social digital innovation?
The most important part is the experimentation part, right?
How does PDIS work in practice? What kind of culture are you trying to implement inside government institutions?
Can we say that you’re trying to implement an open government culture?
How do you interact, collaborate, exchange with the administration and public servants of all levels and ministries?
How would you define stakeholders? Who are they?
How did you come with this open stakeholders model?
I agree.
What does running code mean?
Running code.
What kind of obstacles did you encounter when collaborating with public servants or PO, and how did you overcome those obstacles?
Really?
You didn’t encounter, for example, timeline obstacles?
Timeline, because institutional timeline and civic hacker’s or civic maker’s timeline are quite different.
In the PDIS map you formulate PDIS objectives, and one of them is to facilitate or ease the way public servants work.
How do you do that in practice?
The way public servants work.
What kind of digital tools do you use for example?
Some examples?
It kind of interprets...
Which changes have been made, thanks to the PDIS, within the government and the administration?
What’s that?
I’ve read it.
Presidential promises?
To achieve those improvements?
It’s great.
The project has to focus on that only?
I don’t remember.
The objective for the hackathon is to select 20 cases?
Is the presidential hackathon a project from PDIS?
Who has suggested the idea to organize that kind of event?
Maybe it’s a bit redundant, but what kind of PDIS projects have been successfully implemented and audited by public servants or inside government institutions?
How PDIS achieve to change the policy or the law?
Which projects have been aborted and why?
Last question. How do you imagine the future of the PDIS?
So true.
Possibly, there is no democratic state at all.
OK.
Thank you.
Yes.
That’s not sure, yet.
I could stay longer in Taiwan if I apply to another fellowship for next year... but I’m not sure if I will apply yet or not, because I will probably have to teach a class next year.
Yes, in France.
