Citizen Co-production through open data: Cases of citizen training & engagement

In recent years, the role of the citizen in the delivery of government services is being reinterpreted, changing their role from passive consumers to partners or co-producer of services. This trend is consistent with the core values of the open data movement: Innovation, collaboration, and participation. In this paper, we introduce three cases of citizen co-production of services through open data. The three cases focus particularly in the evaluation and assessment of services and policies. Our ongoing research explores the effectiveness of these co-production experiences in increasing citizen participation.
